Description: This is a scarce early S.Blair signed salt glaze stoneware ovoid double handle crock jar made between 1829-1835 by Sylvester Blair at his Cortland, New York pottery....It is stamped S.BLAIR CORTLAND on shoulder highlighted with cobalt (a couple of the letters did not stamp clearly)..A nice cobalt decorated flower on front below the pottery name.....hand thrown on a potters wheel with finger grooves around inside surface.....thick heavy stoneware jar with salt glaze finish...double applied handles on side....sunken groove inside rim....round early ovoid shape....11"tall..approximately two gallons?....Excellent condition with only a couple small shallow chips on rim along with some normal old wear/small nicks. A couple small shallow chips on very bottom. A small very faint natural glaze hairline on side that you have to have a magnifying glass to see. A couple small natural open air bubbles. A nice clean jar with no stains. This is a very nice looking and hard to find early jar!....Sylvester Blair built the first pottery in Cortland, NY in 1829. He was only in business for about 5 years and sold the pottery to Mason & Russell in 1835, so this wonderful ovoid crock was made between 1829-1835......
