Scarce Glazed Redware Jar, TN or NC origin, early to mid 19th century, ovoid jar with footed base, tooled shoulder, tall collar with flattened rim, and ribbed open-strap handles, the surface covered in a black lead-and-manganese glaze. This beautifully-potted jar is described in Wahler's notes as "definitely related to TN pots, but possibly NC." Provenance: Case Antiques, Inc. Auctions & Appraisals, Knoxville, TN. Very nice condition with a few base chips, a shallow 3/4" chip to one handle, minor chipping to interior of rim, and areas of surface wear to jar, primarily at midsection. H 12 5/8".
