Antique Blue & White Pearlware Pottery Humidor "A Present for Mr. Capes 1834"
About the Item
A very rare dated & inscribed William IV period Pearlware blue & white pottery humidor/ tobacco jar & cover, 1834.
The jar with a pronounced dome or bell shaped cover mounted with an acorn shaped finial, both the cover & base are finely decorated with boats on a river within a landscape with castle ruins.
The jar has a painted dedication to the front in black lettering, with the legend; "A Present to Mr. Capes 1834". It is rather rare to have such a jar with both a date & name of the owner.
Condition is excellent, there is no damage or repair, a rare documentary pearlware jar & cover dated 1834.
Pearlware was a type of pottery most likley invented in Staffordshire in the late 1770s, with a slightly bluey white glaze on a white body. Josiah Wedgwood in 1779 was credited with its creation, however current thinking is that is was invented by Staffordshire potters just a few years earlier.

Catalina Pottery (or Catalina Island Pottery) is the commonly used name for Catalina Clay Products, a division of the Santa Catalina Island Company, which produced brick, tile, tableware and decorative pottery on Santa Catalina Island, California. Catalina Clay Products was founded in 1927 by William Wrigley, Jr. of the Wrigley chewing gum family. He built a tile and brick pottery factory on a beach located near Avalon, Santa Catalina Island.
