Crockery

[Sheperdess]

The pattern of the Southern items portrayed on this crock are slightly indented (debossed). They were then painted.
The lid does not match the pot. It was painted red and I could see that something was originally on the lid. So I soaked it and took off the paint.
My curiosity was then satisfied.
I would like to know the age of these items and anything else that someone might be able to add. These items belonged to the hubs Mom.

Hey Sheperdess,

Is there a "Made in USA" on the base of the pot / jar? I initially thought bean pot from the shape. Did the Hub enjoy cookies from it's confines as a ute? Me, I like that Saguaro!

This one is in not such hot shape:

This other one, though tannish, has better paint: This Is A Great Vintage Western Looking Cookie Jar No Chips or Cracks in It

So evidentally it is not that old.
