Distinguishing Characteristics - Most Interesting About The Piece:
This is a beautiful small antique redware deep pie plate or bowl with great form and color. It would display very well in your collection of antique redware. It is in good condition given it is about 200 years old, just super.
Condition:
The plate is in good condition with no cracks, hairlines, or repair, which we can identify. It has general crazing to the glaze which is hard to see due to the coloring of the plate but is there. The piece also has several chips along the edge of the plain rim as well as glaze losses here and there. The plate also has a minimum number of spots of surface losses to the glaze. Finally, as is the case with all these primitive old redware pieces, the plate has several of the usual defects you would expect such as pops, slubs, unglazed areas, and uneven spots. The back of the plate has many of these defects which show themselves as small holes or crevasses in the surface especially at the edge where the flat base meets the sides. Be that as it may, these issues do not to distract from the beauty and quality of the piece. Please view the photos for additional condition information.
