Antique Parian Ware pitcher. c:1800's. It has a fern and flower pattern; stands 8.5 tall x 5.5 wide at bottom. Has one small chip off bottom rim edge; see pic. 5, but no other chips or cracks. There is in incised 'v' or 'l' on bottom depending on how you look at it. This may be Bennington Pottery, or English, not sure. The Bennington book shows an almost identical pitcher, but the handle is slightly fancier on this one than the book. This came from a historical estate in Troy, MI. Price reflects the chip on bottom rim. 10/06nahaucs
