Early Regional Pottery

This jar by Greene County, Tenn. potter John Alexander Lowe set a record for Tennessee pottery at a Case Antiques Auction in 2008. Estimated at $12,000-$18,000, the redware jar sold for $63,000. The circa 1860 jar, with extruded handles, incised decoration at the handle attachments and stamped name circling its shoulders, is the only known intact Lowe jar in existence.
