Antique Pennsylvania Redware Pie Plate, Circa 1850s
A charming and authentic example of 19th-century Pennsylvania folk pottery, this redware pie plate is a wonderful reflection of the simple, utilitarian beauty that defines American country antiques. Handcrafted from local red clay and finished with a warm lead glaze, the plate displays the honest, unpretentious character that collectors of early American ceramics and Pennsylvania German folk art prize.
The undecorated surface allows the natural warmth of the fired redware to speak for itself — its rich earthy tones ranging from deep brick red to soft amber beneath the glaze. At 7½ inches in diameter, it is a classic pie plate size, equally at home displayed on a dresser, shelf, or as part of a collection of early American country pottery.
Minor wear and light crazing are consistent with its age and use, adding to its authenticity and charm rather than detracting from it.
A lovely, honest piece of Pennsylvania country life from nearly 175 years ago.
