These are two late eighteenth century red earthenware objects that will be included in my forthcoming two-volume, 1,660-page, tenth book, titled, An Early Industry of Household Wares: The Red Earthenware of Salem Village, Danvers, Peabody, Beverly and Salem, Massachusetts.
These are ridiculously rare objects to see today; the pitcher (left) dated in slip "1789" will be published in Volume I, while the jug (right) dated in slip "1797" will be published in Volume II. I suspect both of these objects were manufactured in Essex County, Massachusetts.
