Ceramic Pumpkin Cookie Jar BW 72 Orange Lidded Canister Green Stem Ribbed Halloween Thanksgiving Treat Holder 8 Inch 1970s
$44.99
This is a glossy orange ceramic pumpkin cookie jar likely from the 1970s, a lidded canister about 8 inches tall with a curled green stem on the lid and an incised BW 72 on the base, the initials of the home ceramicist who made it.
The orange glaze is bright and even with no chips or cracks, and the base shows small glaze specks and pinholes, all shown in the photos.
Hobby ceramics were a big pastime in the 1970s, when many lidded pumpkin jars like this came out of ceramic mold studios to hold Halloween candy and Thanksgiving treats. This one suits a fall kitchen counter or a holiday buffet table.
