Vintage C. C. Cole North Carolna teapot or lidded pitcher in vivid cobalt blue 8 inches mint

A lovely deep blue lidded pitcher or teapot, unmarked but clearly C. C. Cole, good size and mint condition. Likely 1980s or thereabouts, as it closely resembles the form and finish of Cole pottery in the Virginia Shelton era. (Note the similarities between this one and the two other Cole pieces, one marked V.S., the others unmarked, but same clay and stilt marks and treatment.) I'd call it a quart? Eight inches to the finial, about seven across the lip to handle, so it's a substantial size, with rings around the lid. This ain't a creamer, y'all, it's an honest to goodness pitcher (or teapot, I don't know how they advertised it). A pretty, and perfect, piece of classic North Carolina art pottery.
