A beautiful 19th-century American salt-glazed stoneware 1-gallon utility crock. This piece features a classic, sharply tooled "string-tie" rim profile and a hand-painted cobalt blue three-leaf clover/leaf motif, both definitive diagnostic hallmarks of the historic Baltimore, Maryland pottery region, heavily attributed to the workshop of Peter Herrmann (circa 1870–1880).
