I'm gonna start looking for stoneware. I went to a yard sale to look for bottles and came home with a crock. Reverse psychology?
Really nice ink!

Thanks all. I am not ready to sell the ink at this time, but I am interested in finding out as much as I can so I can decide what to do with it. By the way, it was found in northern NY state on an old backroad near a foundation, not near any city or large town. The reason I was digging was because my brother dug a shard of a "DLO & Son" stoneware bottle the day before. He also found an ink embossed "CPC" which is smooth-bottomed and paneled and 3 inches tall, aqua. I do not have a good picture of it. Anyone know the age, value, etc. Is it "Cross Pen Company"? Here is also another outdoor picture of my pontiled ink. I would not call it cobalt, but what do you think??

Here now is another indoor picture, showing what I would call the true color. All opinions welcome. The pontil is clearly visible also. Thanks. stonebottle

This is the embossing on the "CPC" ink. I do not have a better picture, sorry. It is 3 inches tall, aqua, smooth base, 12 small panels. Any ideas?? It was found 3 feet from the pontiled ink, but looks quite a bit newer. I was hoping someone recognizes the shape and "CPC" because I do not have a better picture. The bottle is now in NY and I am in PA. I saw one that sold on ebay in the last month for only $9.99 but that seems low. My brother found it and is interested in any info. He will be heading back to dig the area again very soon!!
