EARLY GOODWIN AND WEBSTER INCISED OVOID JUG
A beautiful large incised ovoid jug with a ringed neck.  It was madein the early 1800's  by Goodwin & Webster of Hartford, Connecticut.  The height is 17".  It is in very good condition with a stone pop to the left of the decoration, a few base chips and a short hairline running about 2 1/2 " along the length of the handle.  It looks to be about a 3 gallon capacity.  It makes a bold statement in a collection!

TINY 18TH CENTURY CHURN WITH FENTON FLOWER
A very rare small churn made by Jonathan Fenton in Boston, Massachusetts c. 1795.  Both sides of the churn are stamped with Fenton's signature flower.decoration and both flowers are filled with cobalt.  The churn has early open handles or ears highlighted with cobalt at each point of attachment.   The height of this churn is only 14"!  It is rare enough to find a Fenton churn but probably even more rare to find a tabletop example.  It looks like there was a lot of red clay mixed with the white stoneware clay.  This is visible at the base where the piece is not glazed.  Probably because of the inclusion of the red clay which would result in a softer composition, there are some hairline cracks and there is also some chipping at the base.  The chipping is confined to one side.   I would venture a guess that you will not easily find another example!

CHARLESTOWN OVOID JAR

 LARGE SPANIEL IN ROCKINGHAM GLAZE
A nice old c. 1860 spaniel in Rockingham glaze.  The height is 10 1/4".  The base measures 7 7/8" X 6 1/4". There is some glaze wear and there are a few old chips to the base but he is a fine old dog, seated left, and has a great primitive look.  He will work beautifully on a mantle or as a door stop.   He is heavier than most of this type. The dog portion must be fairly solid clay.
