Our March 2016 auction features over 500 lots of antique stoneware and redware pottery, and offers a diverse selection of forms, mediums, and decorative techniques from nearly every collecting region. This sale will be another landmark event, featuring numerous new and exciting pottery discoveries, with several items even bringing forth fresh understanding of a number of early American potters and their craft. Highlights in this auction include: A recently-surfaced selection of exceptional West Virginia, Western Pennsylvania, and Ohio stoneware, which descended in the family of legendary Ohio antiques dealer, Clark Garrett. A monumental, six-gallon stoneware water cooler with cobalt pastoral scene featuring pheasant-on-stump and house motifs, stamped "J. & E. NORTON / BENNINGTON, VT." An extremely rare four-gallon stoneware jar with cobalt starface decoration, stamped "COWDEN & WILCOX / HARRISBURG, PA." An important Texarkana, Arkansas stoneware temperance keg with applied rattlesnake, incised "A Whiskey Gauger" and "by Jacob Backley", featured on The Antiques Roadshow. An outstanding selection of Anna Pottery stoneware, including an extremely rare, glass-eyed pig bottle with political inscription and an American Indian face pipe with elaborate incising. A collection of rare North Bay, NY stoneware with stenciled cobalt animal motifs. A fine selection of Southern ceramics, including a diminutive Edgefield, SC stoneware face vessel, an Alamance County, NC redware sugar jar, and Moravian redware animal flasks. A group of Pennsylvania redware animal forms, including an exceptional redware figure of a lion standing atop a bird. A Thomas Vickers, Chester County, PA redware presentation jar, dated 1818. An important tin-glazed redware jar with cobalt decoration, stamped "I. Bell", probably Winchester, VA or Hagerstown, MD origin.
