Large Ohio Peaseware Covered Canister, Massive Jar

Large Ohio Peaseware Covered Canister, Massive Jar

Extremely large bulbous form featuring concentric rings turnings and urn finial on lid. David Mills Pease was born in the Connecticut River Valley of Massachusetts in 1815.  He took the opportunity to move his family to eastern Ohio during our initial expansion west. In 1840 he settled in the Cascade Valley of Northeast Ohio and founded his business in 1850. He used only the finest maple. He developed and produced intricately turned items which he then lacquered to retain the beauty of the maple. While many others attempted to produce attractive treen containers, none reached the height of refinement and beauty as the objects produced by Pease.
