This is a Great Looking Antique American Primitive Stoneware Storage Jug. Circa Early 19th Century. It is done in the Classic Early American "Ovoid" Shape - Style. It is Embossed "CHELSEA" Confirming that it was Made in Chelsea Massachusetts ( Boston Suburb ) on a Unusual Rust Color Salt Glaze Exterior. Note that the Chelsea Mark has Blue Decorated Highlights. It is Not Marked as such but Based on its Size but I can Confirm that it has an Approx 1 Gallon Liquid Storage Capacity. These types of Jugs were typically used to Store and Preserve Liquids such as Water - Cider - Hard Ciders - Spirits - Liquors - Moonshine Etc. It is in Excellent All Original Condition - Displays Beautifully. No Damage - No Repairs. The Exterior has an Assortment of Surface Glaze Imperfections - Color Variations Etc. but these are Quite Normal with This Type of American Stoneware and Would Have Occurred in the Making - Kiln Firing Process.
Stoneware Pieces Like were Completely Hand Made Each Being One of a Kind. They were Also Fired in Large Kilns with Many Other Pieces at the Same Time.
It Measures Overall Approx
11 1/2 inches Tall.
It Measures 8 inches Wide - Long at Mid Section that Tapers Down to a 5 inch Base.
