Item 3549
 
Coming to you from Doc's Crocks is this imposing 4 Gallon Stoneware Jar made and stamped by "C. Vaupel Pottery, 388 Wallabout St., Brooklyn."
 
This is the work of Cornelius Vaupel who made pottery in the Williamsburgh area of Broolyn from 1878 to 1894.  His pottery is uncommon and not usually as well decorated as this jar. See William Ketchum, Jr., American Stoneware, p. 63.
 
This beauty features an Imposing 4 Gallon Size, Crisp Pottery Stamp with Cobalt Wash, and an Impressive Dotted Trumpet Flower!  The flower has four leaves and a blossom executed with a combination of brush work and slip cup.  Stands  14 1/2" tall.
 
Excellent Condition.  Four minor 1/8" nibbles on the inner rim where a lid sat, and a faint surface-only crow's foot under the right handle (closeup).  That's it!  No top rim or base chips, hairlines, cracks, stains, or restoration.
