Random Blocks quilt
Log Cabin/Courthouse Steps quilt
A press-molded circular pitcher with gradated medium brown glaze, a broad spout, and tall neck decorated in relief with a hop bine motif. A scalloped border encircles the vessel where the shoulder meets the body. The handle is in the form of a greyhound, which appears to be climbing into the jug. The body is decorated in relief with hunting scenes: hounds attacking a stag on one side and mastiffs attacking a boar on the other.
