Description:

Wedgwood's (1880s) version of this body style is probably the best known and the most abundant of the Square Ridged varieties. Its popularity is attested by Red Cliff's reproduction of it in the 1960's. Johnson Brothers also made this shape but it is less plentiful.

Teh basic square shape is softened by a slight flare to the waist and the inward curve of the ribbing which extends to the bracket feet. The bracket handle is also slightly curved.
