East Tennessee lead-glazed earthenware cream pot, attributed to the Cain Pottery of Sullivan County. Decorated with straight and combed sine wave incised lines below the rim, unglazed base. 5 3/4" H. Mid 19th century. Note: recognition of the prolific Cain pottery in East Tennessee was noted in published resources as early as 1909, wherein the publication "Historic Sullivan," Oliver Taylor states "Another factory which received national attention was the Cain pottery, located at Emanuel Church, and owned by two brothers, William M. and Abe Cain . . . It was operated about 1840 and, among other wares, souvenir jugs were made, many of which still exist."
