| Figure 7 Syrup or oil jar, possibly Long Island, New York, ca. 1840. Lead-glazed earthenware daubed with manganese oxide. H. 8 1/2". Although this pot has a New England provenance, an identical extruded handle has been found at the Huntington pottery site. Two other pots of this form made in salt-glazed stoneware are known and are believed to be from the Hudson River Valley. The Huntington pottery shares a continuum with the Hudson River Valley potteries through the Caire and Brown families. Wet drug jars in continental tin-glazed earthenwares appear in this form. |
