The jar has a early ovoid shape and has two lug lifter handles, with a nice dark earthy iron sandish glaze, which was passed down through the Craven family of potters in White County. This is a museum grade example and is a must for any southern collector. Condition has a old small rim repair and a stress line that is tight. Fresh example standing 15" Tall
