Description

Very rare I've done some research. A lot of research. The markings on the bottom are to messed up to make out. I think it's English Victorian majolica or Italian Renaissance maiolica. It has a spiral ring on the inside bottom which makes me think it was made on a pottery wheel. It came from an estate sale in North Carolina. That's the only history I have on it. I took it to an antique store. The girl told me its definitely old. But she couldn't tell me anything else about it. After probably 50 hours of research or more I found 2 other of the same design only slightly different. One on eBay was a little taller and a bit different said England on the bottom. And one on shantique.com it had a spout but the design was the same.
