Description
Put PENNSYLVANIA REDWARE in my shop's search box to see more of this wonderful folk art! Straight from an old friend's estate, I am thrilled to offer a fabulous collection of 1984-85 signed early American Pennsylvania redware that was made in the same technique as the antique redware was made 300 years earlier. Some of the collection includes a traditional slip-trailed loaf tray, a spongewear fluted-footed vase, slipware bowl, slip & sponge decorated plates, a fabulous bird (turkey?) bank, manganese glazed pitcher & porringers (chowder or soup) mugs, slip glazed honey or mustard pot & creamer, & assorted plates. They are offered individually. This listing is for the manganese glazed pair of porringers by the Long Family Potters. They are each about 5" by 2" & they pair was the 13th item in the collection. It has a fabulous dark silver-nearly black metallic finish. These will be great filled with a delicious serving of chili or chowder. These are stunning & look great with modern & antique decor. Each piece includes the certificate of authenticity; they all appear to have been displayed & not used, or possibly used very gently & rarely. My friend even had the October 1984 Early American Life magazine (the magazine is NOT included) with the advertisement that she had cut out to order these back then. It was a subscription where you'd receive a new piece to examine & either keep or send back. According to the ad, the collection included 15 handmade, hand decorated & hand glazed museum, quality reproductions of rare antique redware, all created by master potters using a 300 year old technique, signed & dated & accompanied by a certificate of authenticity.
