IMPORTANT SIGNED ANDREW COFFMAN, ROCKINGHAM CO., SHENANDOAH VALLEY OF VIRGINIA DECORATED STONEWARE COVERED SERVING BOWL, salt-glazed, deep conical form with a plain rim and two applied, grooved, arched handles, bearing a slipped cobalt "AC" to the underside, retaining its original domed cover with a button-form finial surrounded by two incised rings, another ring near the overhanging rim, with an interior flange. Each with brushed cobalt flowers and leaves on slip-trailed stems, the cover with two cobalt slip-trailed undulating rings and brushed cobalt bands. Potted and decorated by Andrew Coffman (1795-1853), Elkton or Beldor, in eastern Rockingham Co. 1840-1853. 9 1/2" HOA, 5 3/4" H bowl, 11 1/2" D rim, 7 3/4" D base.
Literature: See Evans Suter - "A Great Deal of Stone & Earthenware" - The Rockingham County, Virginia School of Folk Pottery, p. 59, fig. 81 for related decoration. Also see ibid, p. 37, fig. 17 and p. 93, fig. 175, both illustrating the same style of "A," as seen in the initials on this bowl.
Catalogue Note: The style of this bowl with its large domed cover are unrecorded in Shenandoah Valley pottery and rarely seen in American salt-glazed stoneware. Its highly decorative nature suggests it was employed as a serving vessel instead of a storage or preparation piece.
Good as-found condition, the bowl with several cracks/hairlines and six exterior rim chips, the cover with a short hairline, moderate chip to the overhanging rim, and an area of loss to the inner flange.
