Rim decorated with a slip-trailed wavy line design. Exceptional in size and color, this pitcher typifies the refinement of early Baltimore stoneware. An X-shaped hairline on underside, with one line extending 2 3/4" up side, and the three other lines extending a short distance onto base. A small spout chip. A small in-the-firing contact mark / chip to right side of front. H 7 1/2".
