Blue and White floral stoneware jar

By Cory1218, 21 July, 2013
Description

This "jar" for lack of a better word is 8" high, looks like cement or stoneware with a blue and white porcelain overlay, in rough shape.  The handles are interesting in that they seem to be lion heads with a iron (rusted) ring through the lion's mouth, similiar to a door knocker.  It might have had a lid at one time.

 

Just curious as to what it might be.  Recently purchased at a flea market.

 

Thanks!
