Studio Pottery Crock for Kitchen Utensils 4.5” + Underplate| Farmhouse Primitive

A signed studio pottery utensil holder rendered in warm speckled tan stoneware with a hand-painted burgundy heart motif and graphic black accents. The cylindrical 4.5 inch form offers generous capacity for wooden spoons and kitchen tools, grounded by a matching underplate that features an integrated thumb rest for easy handling. - Height: 4.5 inches - Signed underside (Sugar Loaf) - Speckled tan stoneware body - Hand-painted burgundy heart with black detailing - Gloss glazed speckled - Unique and matching saucer/underplate with molded thumb rest for lifting - Never used, but the underside of the containers are rough and thus the under-plate may show signs of minimal wear just from the display of these items. The speckled glaze gives it warmth without heaviness, while the heart motif adds classic Americana structure rather than novelty. The underplate is not merely decorative, the raised thumb grip allows the entire piece to be lifted securely, protecting surfaces while maintaining functionality. It reads strongest in farmhouse, primitive, or country-modern kitchens where utilitarian pottery is part of the visual composition rather than hidden away. studio pottery utensil holder, stoneware kitchen crock, rustic utensil holder, speckled tan pottery, farmhouse kitchen decor, country heart ceramic, signed studio pottery, ceramic spoon crock, Americana kitchen storage, primitive style stoneware
