Item 10162
 
Coming to you from Doc's Crocks is this Superb 3 Gallon Cream Pot made and stamped "Geddes, N.Y."  
 
This is most likely the work of William H. Farrar who worked in Geddes (Syracuse) from as early as 1840 and intermittently until 1868 (William Ketchum, Jr., American Stoneware, 70).  
 
This beauty features the Pottery Stamp with Cobalt Wash, Freehand "3" Capacity Number, and Three Brushed Cobalt Daisies as a Decoration.  The daisy blossoms have five petals and dotted centers. Vivid, rich cobalt was used throughout the decoration.  Measures 11" tall and 11" wide.  
 
Very Good Condition.  Three flakes inside the rim (1/8" to 1/2"), and a T-shaped hairline on the back at the bottom (closeup).   No outer rim or base chips, cracks, stains, or restoration.  Some bubbling in the cobalt in the right side of the right daisy in the making.
