A Wonderful Southeastern Massachusetts Red Earthenware Jar Found Yesterday in Brimfield, Massachusetts

Yesterday was also a good day in Brimfield, Massachusetts, where I found a wonderfully glazed southeastern Massachusetts red earthenware jar in an unusual size. This is also a rare glaze to find on this type of form from this industry today - whereas, I can only speak for myself, but I do not believe I have seen this combination of glaze colors before along with crawling or separation in the glaze.

This is really a beautiful jar with a combination of orange, green and black in the glaze. The size is also rare standing only 7 1/8 inches tall. It was previously owned in New Hampshire.

Note: For more information about the eighteenth and nineteenth century potter's industry in southeastern Massachusetts -- I suggest these articles that I have previously posted.
