The Remains of a Late-18th Century Red Earthenware Pan Recovered in Chimney Point, Vermont

I have written a group of articles this month about Moses Bradley's late-eighteenth century red earthenware production in Chimney Point, Vermont, as well as what he manufactured in West Woodstock, Vermont in the 1800s. Bradley's production is hardly recognized today despite a significant output, which lasted more-than 30 years.

This is the remains of a red earthenware pan that was recently recovered by archaeologists at the site of Bradley's circa 1790-1797 business in Chimney Point. Interestingly, the form, light clay color and interior glaze could easily be mistaken for production elsewhere in New England, especially the pans, which were manufactured throughout the nineteenth century in central and northern New England.

Note: Search this website for more information about Moses Bradley's red earthenware production in Vermont. I have posted three other articles in the past month.
