- Churn, 1867-1884 - This 4-gallon butter churn was made of a durable, leak-proof pottery called stoneware, shaped on a potter's wheel. The orange-peel-like outer glaze was created when the potter threw handfuls of common rock salt into a white-hot kiln during the piece's firing. Potters decorated their salt-glazed stoneware pieces with an amazing array of designs, including the stylized flower and laurel wreath on this piece.
