Stoneware Pickling Jar

$60.00

Similar ovoid storage jars were used throughout the 1700’s. Made of a specially formulated stoneware clay to handle liquids, so they are perfect for pickling as well as for dry storage. These pottery jars were usually covered with a piece of cloth, paper, leather, or bladder. Handthrown by our potter here in Indiana. 6-1/2” tall by 5” in diameter. Holds a little over a quart. Food-safe, lead-free glaze.

Made in USA

Beautiful

This is a beautiful pot. I will probably end up using it as a vase, since I’m not sure how to use it for food storage- at least not yet. It would be great to see some pots like this that are unglazed on the bottom 2/3 or so for burying in wetted sand pits to keep cool. I think those pots might typically have a couple of handles on the top sides to fasten a board over the top to keep pest out of it.

Beautiful craftsmanship, will certainly order again

The pickling jar is stunning, even more beautiful in person than in the photos here. I will certainly be ordering more to add to my kitchen.
