This is a rare and beautiful antique Chinese stoneware preserve crock, crafted in the 19th century and ideal for collectors or those who appreciate fine antique pottery. This heavy-duty crock, used traditionally for wine pickling or preserving, showcases classic brown stoneware with a rich glaze and sturdy craftsmanship.
