DescriptionBowl pressed upright in a female mold of an indeterminate number of vertical sections bearing the pattern of six elongated loops by a plain male plunger. Joined by a wafer to an octagonal baluster standard with an annular knop above a square plinth. Standard and plinth pressed upside down in a female mold of two vertical sections, opening at diagonally opposite corners, by a plain male plunger that formed the hollow interior of the standard and the base, with a cap ring that formed the underside and angular edge of the base. Rim tooled into seven flutes. Rough pontil mark around edge of opening between interior of foot and baluster stem.
