Figure 59 Storage jar, attributed to John P. Schermerhorn, Samuel Wilson, and/or associates, Richmond or Henrico County, Virginia, 1817–1850. Salt-glazed stoneware. H. 12 1/2". Mark: stamped “2” in dotted circle placed in center of brushed blue cobalt floral bloom. Capacity: 2 gallons. (Private collection.) The rolled applied handles of this jar are identical to those on the jar illustrated in fig. 56. The capacity mark is identical to those on the vessels illustrated in figs. 43, 45, and 47, suggesting that they are all from the same pottery.
