An Outstanding 19th Century Red Earthenware Bank that Just Sold in Pennsylvania

This excellent nineteenth century slip decorated red earthenware bank featuring a tree stump, applied floral decoration and a Native American just sold at Briggs Auction Inc. in Garnet Valley, Pennsylvania. It was included in the sale as part of a collection of pottery, such as other outstanding examples of nineteenth century red earthenware, including a slip decorated spaniel bank most likely from Pennsylvania.

Interestingly, this Native American bank may be related to a similar bank attributed to Pennsylvania that sold in the Seaman's Bank Collection at Christies in New York City in March 1991; that bank later sold in the Kelly Young Collection at Crocker Farm in Sparks, Maryland in January 2010.

This bank sold for $850 plus the auction premiums.
