made from suplejack
Spotted on the Moeraki Coast, East Coast of the South Island of New Zealand,
while we were out and about a few years ago.
My husband used to help his uncle make these pots when he was a boy,
so he was really interested to find this.

Don't know what suplejack is...guess I will go look that up. Looks interesting, though.
ReplyDeleteLike Rose, I don't know what suplejack is either. I took her lead and looked it up. This is certainly old! Great find! Thanks for linking up!
ReplyDeleteThat's a cool piece of history.
