What an amazing opportunity! Two very rare and early jars. The vendor would obviously like to see them kept together. Both are outstanding items in their own right. The large one is Near Mint with only minor marks. Fantastic strong impressed stamp. The small one is Very Good. Displays as close to perfect but there is some overpainting around the lip and it is not clear just how much work has been done around the top. Body is superb with a great stamp. A brilliant pair of stoneware items. Grade: N/A Estimate: $$5,000.00 - $7,000.00
