Salt Glaze Crocks (Set of 3)

Set of three antique salt-glazed crocks found in Kentucky. The glossy, translucent, and slightly orange-peel-like texture of the stoneware was formed by throwing common salt into the kiln during the higher temperature part of the firing process. The earliest known production of salt-glazed stoneware was in the Rhineland of Germany around 1400 and the process continued through the latter half of the 20th Century when environmental clean air restrictions led to the demise of widespread use of salt glazing. This trio would add an instant dose of farmhouse charm to your kitchen when used for holding utensils, florals, etc.
