Hi all, I am looking for manufacturing date ranges or other data, and references, for the following items, if anyone has this information:
Transfer print whiteware that also has hand painting. I have a platter at home that is brown transfer with green, blue, yellow and red underglaze painting to color in ferns, urns, etc. The mark is for C&WKH (C & W K Harvey) 1835-1853, with palm tree. Is this a typical time frame for this decorative technique? earlier? later? We have several fragments from an archaeological site in northern Kentucky and I am trying to distinguish among various occupation periods.
When did English manufactureres quit exporting Jackfield, or similar fine black glazed redware to the US?
Date ranges and a name for the fine redware with the "silvered", almost mirrored slip.
Do any of you know of a good reference on English redwares as exported to the US in the late 18th-19th centuries?
Switching to furniture and wood molding: has anyone come across an early 19th century company called Continental, from New York. We have a metal plaque on a piece of molding/furniture framing that says Continental New York. Style of the piece puts it into the 1st half of the 19th century.
thanks in advance for any information
