I found on the internet that with a stamp like what is on this piece of pottery, the year it was made was likely somewhere between 1853-1866 The piece measures 9 inches tall and is about 7 1/2 inches across. The blue flower motifis striking and itis in good condition with the only real flaw being the chip on the top edge of the piece which is shown in the pictures. The chip does not jump out at you and I think that overall, the crock is really a beautiful piece. Please review the high definition pictures carefully for condition detail.
