Antique Crock Stoneware 1/2 Gal Cobalt Slip Salt Glaze Att Strasburg, VA

  

ANTIQUE ONE HALF GALLON COBALT SLIP DECORATED SALT GLAZED STONEWARE CROCK. Attributed: Strasburg, VA, Likely Solomon Bell. A nice variable color gray salt glaze on the exterior. A light salt glaze on the interior. A 1/2 extended tall and slightly flattened top rim.

Raised ribbed decoration just below the top rim used to tie off cloth cover. Four units of cobalt slip stylized decoration on all sides with longer last stroke just below the top rim. Potter's finger grooves visible inside.
