Figure 32 Loaf dish, Huntington, New York, 1840–1885. Lead-glazed earthenware with slip decoration. L. 12 7/8". This loaf dish and all other plates with the stamped star design have some sort of staining or muddiness in the glaze. This muddiness also appears commonly on other Huntington stamped patterns. This effect may have occurred through contamination due to experimentation with glazes or from the making of Rockingham-type glazed pots. Fragments of Rebekah-at-the-Well teapots have been found at the site including parts of saggars associated with their manufacture. |
