This Really is a Great Looking Authentic Antique American Primitive Stoneware Jug. Circa Approx 1870s. At Some Point in the Past is has Been Professionally Electrified and Converted to be Used as a Table Lamp Base. It is Rendered in the Approx 1 Gallon Liquid Storage Capacity Size. It is Also Embossed with the Makers Name C. F. WORTHEN in PEABODY MASSACHUSETTS. It Has a Classic American Greige Color Salt Glaze Exterior. The Front of the Jug has a Very Nice Blue Color Hand Decorated Stylized Flower Decoration.
Back in the Day These Types of Stoneware Items were a Necessity in Most of Americas Farms and Household's and They were Made - Intended For Everyday Utilitarian Use. These Types of Jugs were Commonly Used to Store Liquids such as Ciders, Vinegar, Ales, Liquors & Spirits, Spring Water Etc. The Jug is in Excellent Original Condition and it Displays Beautifully. No Cracks - No Chips - No Repairs. Note that There is a Small Hole Drilled in the Back Lower Base Area so as to Accommodate the Electrical Power Cord. I have Tested the Cord and Socket with a Light Bulb and it is Working - Functional.
NOTE That it Does Not Come with the Lamp Shade Mounting Bracket but They Come in a Standard Size & Style and can Easily be Purchased at a Hardware Store - Online - Etc.
The Jug Itself Measures Overall Approx.
11 1/2 inches Tall.
7 1/2 Inches Long - Wide.
