Two Colorfully Glazed Examples of 19th Century American Red Earthenware

Here are two new good pieces of pottery! The wonderful nineteenth century green glazed red earthenware jar shown to the left is an object that I picked up this week at the antique shows in Brimfield, Massachusetts. I purchased it from Victor, New York antiques dealer Gene Pratt, whereas he had it consigned to him from a longtime Western New York Collection. And I also believe it was made in Western New York about 1820s-1830s, although I am not exactly sure of the business that it originated at.

Furthermore, the 6 7/8 inch tall pitcher shown to the right is an object that I purchased earlier this summer at a Jeffrey S. Evans & Associates auction in Mount Crawford, Virginia. It is attributed to the pottery of Jacob Eberly (1830-1908) and Daniel Letcher Eberly (1859-1919) in the Shenandoah Valley in Strasburg, Virginia, circa 1886-1903.
