Figure 38 Plate, Huntington, New York, 1851–1885. Lead-glazed earthenware with slip decoration. D. 8". This plate, along with another plate of the same size in a Long Island collection which says “Long Island,” has been attributed to the Huntington pottery. The “Nettie” plate was purchased at auction with a salt-glazed stoneware pot having the Brown Brother mark ca. 1870–1885. The stoneware jar was decorated with the word “Butter” in the same distinctive script that appears on this redware example in cobalt blue. |
