Description
A pair of two antique stoneware jugs advertising businesses in Hudson, New York: Rossman & Mckinstry Druggists, and James J. Fox, both once located on historic Warren Street. Own a piece of Hudson history - or two pieces!
Collectors take note: the larger jug's remarkably vibrant cobalt blue handpainted floral design suggests it was made by Nathan Clark, Jr. of Athens, N.Y. who ran the family pottery from 1843-1891. William Ketchum, in his classic book "American Stoneware," notes that "one of the most interesting aspects of the Athens firm was its colonizing effect on upper New York State. Nathan Clark sent employees to open potteries in Lyons, Rochester, and Mount Morris ... probably no other single individual had as great an effect on the state's stoneware industry."
Dimensions are 15.5 in x 10Â in x 10 in and 9.5 in x 5.75 in x 5.75 in. Condition is fair, with some large cracks to the larger one and general chipping and crazing. Please call or email for a detailed condition report.
