Mid-C Zanesville Ribbed Stoneware Planter bowling pin paperweight so I wouldn't think it

so I wouldn't think it was made for snuff

Very good condition and all of the seams seem to be holding tight

with lush cobalt blue hand-painted ginkgo leaf design over white glaze

3 7/8" across at base

and definitely more or less industructible

Mid-C Zanesville Ribbed Stoneware Planter bowling pin paperweight so I wouldn't think itI've had several of these c. 1940s 50s ribbed Zanesville pieces over time, both tall columnar vases and planters like this one, which I'll never pass one by as I think they're pretty hard to beat. The stoneware form itself is loaded with texture and irregularities, amplified and augmented by the drips and bubbles of the white slip. Earthy, modern, and super useful. Approx 6 1 2" in diameter x 4 5 8" t. Plenty of imperfections native to the piece,
