An Outstanding Selection of American Red Earthenware that Recently Sold at New Haven Auctions in Connecticut

Some real good pieces of American red earthenware have recently sold through New Haven Auctions in Branford, Connecticut, including the beginning of Ohio antiques dealer David Good's collection, where a few pieces sold a few weeks ago. Although, the majority of Good's collection will be sold next year, such as some outstanding examples scheduled to hit the auction block at New Haven Auctions in January 2022.

Nonetheless though, Fred Giampietro and New Haven Auctions sold some wonderful examples of red earthenware on Saturday October 16th, some of which are directly related to research articles that I have written for various publications, as well as being illustrated in my forthcoming 400 or so page book from Historic Beverly in Massachusetts, titled, A Celebrated Industry: The Historic Wares of Southeastern Massachusetts, Bristol County and Cape Cod.

Note: See each individual caption below for more information about the object, publication references and sold prices. This sale also included other great examples of red earthenware, such as a number of colorfully glazed jugs made in Maine and few others made in Massachusetts (check auction results on LiveAuctioneers for all other pottery).
