Item 2183
 
Coming to you from Doc's Crocks is this wonderful Blue and White Stoneware Salt Crock in the Apple Blossom Pattern.
 
This crock is discussed in Terry Taylor and Terry & Kay Lowrance, Collector's Encyclopedia of Salt Glaze Stoneware, p. 126. 
 
Dating to the early 20th century, this beauty features a Diamond Background that Hosts "Salt" on the Front Framed by Apple Blossoms.  The lid repeats the apple blossom pattern around the top.  Diffused blue coloration.  Measures 5 3/4" tall and wide.  
 
Excellent Condition.  The base has a few pinhead-size or smaller nibbles inside the rim.  That's it!  No other chips or any hairlines, cracks, stains, or restoration.  The lid has a 1/4" flake on the top at the edge.  Nothing else to report.
 
As you know, not a common pattern in blue and white salt crocks.
