A Good Large 19th Century Green Glazed Red Earthenware Jar Sells at Hyde Park Country Auctions in New York & Other Auction Results

This is a good red earthenware object that I recently purchased at Hyde Park Country Auctions in Poughkeepsie, New York, whereas I will post better pictures when it arrives later this week. Nonetheless, I suspect this large nineteenth century green glazed red earthenware jar was made in either Vermont or New York, although I have never been able to pinpoint the exact business. I believe it might be related to some cream colored glazed red earthenware jars and jugs that are known today, where the jugs have a northern New England look to the form. This jar survives in excellent condition and the lid is original.

According to the auction house, "The jar came from an estate filled with Americana in Ulster County, New York." It is unclear where the jar was found before that, although Ulster County is located in eastern upstate New York along the Hudson River.

Note: These are two other auction results that I wanted to mention, but I have not had an opportunity to write articles about either of them.
