Two bright cobalt leaves decorate the front. The initials "J P" are stamped below the collar and likely represent the person for whom the churn was made. Handles also decorated completely with cobalt. Churn includes antique miniature wooden dasher and guide. Excellent condition with a few very tiny rim chips. Height 5 5/8".
