Wonderful 19th Century Lead Glazed Red Earthenware Bowl that Sold Last Weekend in Beverly, Massachusetts

Last weekend, this beautiful nineteenth century lead glazed red earthenware bowl sold at Kaminski Auctions in Beverly, Massachusetts. The bowl measures almost eleven-inches in diameter, which may suggest it was used as a punch bowl or otherwise more likely some type of mixing bowl.

It was included in a group lot with some New England utilitarian pots glazed only on the interior, as well as a custard cup and a Pennsylvania slipware plate.

I don't know the provenance of this piece, but the glaze and form seems to suggest that it was probably made in New England, and possibly in Essex County, Massachusetts or New Hampshire.

Although, there was some condition issues, seeing that the bowl was cracked and exhibited a large amount of wear on the interior, but that did not affect its appearance to me considering the beautiful spotted glaze that adorned the exterior.
