A beautifully done 5 gallon crock with two perfect elephant ear handles. A nice even salt glazed piece.This old crock comes from Gardiner Stoneware of Gardiner, Maine and features not one, not two but THREE incised swans highlighted with blue cobalt. Fine detailing is clearly stamped into the front of this piece. At the top is a stamped oval. Inside it reads "GARDINER STONEWARE MANUFACTORY GARDINER ME."
