I found this today at the Goodwill. People complaining about the rising prices, but this was a steal for two dollars. Blue and white stoneware piece likely pre 1900?? Interesting chain link type pattern and scallops on the bottom. No major cracks or breaks, some chips. No readable marking. A good solid piece. 3 inches tall, diameter is 6 1/4. I would say it is a fruit or berry dish, maybe for cereal.
It is a shame because the previous visit to the GW I missed a good milk crock. It had no glaze on the outside, only on the inside. I was soooo close to snagging it but I lost focus, most likely from the same collection as this piece. 1 out of 2 is better than not playing. Enjoy!
