Impressed with "J.A.C." maker's mark on proper right shoulder. Among the better examples of John A. Craven's work that we have offered. A very tight 1 1/4" line to underside, extending 5" up base, where it forms a cross. A few short vertical lines to base. A minor glazed-over flake to handle. A few minor in-the-firing pings to surface. H 14".
