A Wonderful Glazed Red Earthenware Jar Possibly from Ontario that Sold this Week in Dover, New Hampshire

Two days ago, I wrote about a nice selection of American and some Canadian red earthenware that sold at Devin Moisan's auction at the Elks Hall in Dover, New Hampshire. The collection had been consigned from the family of Carmine LoCastro, who lived in Concord, New Hampshire, but was originally from Long Island.

In particular, there were two excellent glazed examples of red earthenware in the sale; the first being one of the finest glazed jugs that I have seen from Essex County, Massachusetts, and the second was a beautifully colored mug from northern New England.

However, the mug was also grouped together in a lot with this remarkably glazed red earthenware jar possibly from Ontario; whereas, there are similar styles known regarded as traditional forms of Ontario pottery, and usually manufactured sometime during the second-half of the nineteenth century. The color of this jar is really amazing!
