A bright aquamarine pictorial-embossed quart "THE LADIES FAVORITE" jar, which is a beautiful example and has come to the light for the first time since the 1860's when it was discarded in a privy. The jar was recently unearthed and has survived in beautifully preserved condition. Only some very light stains to indicate the jar was ever in the ground, and those have been removed easily with a quick tumble. No damage or stains including the heavy and crudely applied mouth with not so much as a nick. No open bubbles, no flashes, no starred pot stones....truly no damage at all. Smooth base. No stopper. A fantastic early jar that is rarely seen for sale, and a gorgeous example to boot.
