Flaws to Note
Possible minor utensil marks inside if used frequently; check specifically for 'flea bites' (tiny chips) on the spout and handle points which are common in ceramic pitchers.
Selling Guide
Where to Sell
eBay (best for targeted collectors), Etsy (if marketed as vintage/cottagecore), and Facebook Marketplace (to avoid high shipping costs of heavy ceramics).
Selling Tips
Highlight 'Made in USA' in the title. Ship using calculated weights as pottery is heavy. Use the keywords 'Farmhouse', 'Cottagecore', and 'Basketweave' to attract non-collector buyers looking for the aesthetic.
