Hi, Just thought I would share a few photos of my early Stoneware. Hope you like it.
I have hunderds of peices. If you would like to see something special in the line, please let me know.

Thanks
Glenn

Nicholas, would love to see pictures of some of your wares, and any recommendations you might have for learning more about Meissen! Where could I buy a copy of your book?

Is anyone going to the NY Ceramics Fair next weekend?

Best,

Walter

I have just joined the group and would like to introduce myself, I am a chemist by profession and collect Meissen and other German porcelain primarily blue and white from 18th century. I have written a book on the subject (Meissen's Blue and White Porcelain, Schiffer Publishing) and lecture on the subject (e.g. New York Ceramics Fair January 2008).

Anybody from Ohio, W. Virginia or Pennsylvania that knows about the early US production of stoneware? I have 8 tumblers in primitive stage, very rough, some are cracked, some are chipped. Some have numbers like "5" on them. They are all drizzle-covered with various "salts" giving variety of colors. I was told they were used underground in the coal mining area by miners to prevent sparks (explosions). They were manufactured using steam presses, plus the colors of them (orig USA salts),

date them to around 1860-1890. They (7 of the 8) stand 3-7/8", top is 3-1/8 diam; base is 1-3/4" diam. Appear to hold 4 oz fluid. 1 is larger 3-1/4" diam at top, and 5-1/4" tall. I would guess they were made in the Ohio River Valley. I have searched everywhere for something similar without results. Has anybody ever seen stoneware drinking tumblers?

Help? I have a brown glazed teapot; appears to be primitive. Is built atop a rock. A rock, blackened from use on a hot stove or fire forms the bottom of this 4 cup teapot. Probably is redware-Americana. Any comments?
