Know before you buy
While the ceramic material is durable, this specific item is intended for display purposes only due to the commemorative decal. We recommend using it as a decorative piece rather than for food service.
The black glaze is a retired Fiesta color, making this crock a sought-after item for collectors. It is no longer in production, which adds to its rarity and historical value.
No, this item is designed strictly for indoor use. Exposure to outdoor elements could damage the finish and the integrity of the commemorative college decal.
To preserve the decal and the ceramic finish, we recommend dusting it with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or soaking the piece in water, as these can degrade the commemorative artwork over time.
The Southern West Virginia Community Technical College logo is a commemorative decal applied to the exterior. Because it is a surface application, it should be handled with care to prevent scratching or peeling.
