Antique Manganese Glazed Redware Potbelly Creamer with Handle Southeastern PA
Description: Beautiful antique short potbelly creamer having a spout and applied handle. This brown colored vessel is manganese glazed and has black or dark specs throughout the piece. The creamer has a round flat base with rising rounded sides ending in a shoulder supporting a tall neck, ending in an outwards extended formed plain rim. The rim has a formed spout. The creamer has an applied handle staring in the middle of the potbelly and ending at the rim. The piece is glazed inside and out and has a brown color with black specs throughout suggesting manganese glaze. The creamer is not glazed on the bottom and has the typical coloring and appearance of unglazed old redware. The piece, which we believe is from the late 1800s or earlier is in over all very good condition with no breaks or repairs. It does have a few chips along the edge and at the front or tip of the spout. It also has surface losses of glaze along the applied handle and the extended base. A beautiful antique creamer wi
