    Hi, I’m looking for information on the follow three items. I don’t know much about antique American or British pottery and I’ve hit a brick wall. Any help is greatly appreciated. Some of the items came from a distant deceased relative and the other from an estate sale. Again, thanks. 2.JPG 4.jpg 3.jpg 1.jpg 7.jpg 8.jpg 9.jpg 3 copy.jpg 13.jpg a.JPG

    Large Bowl: Incised mark on rim, looks like the letter M over a small lower case h, small black letter x to the right. Glaze color and application reminded me of Virginia/Shenandoah Valley pottery, but it doesn’t appear to be redware. Moulded stoneware is a little lighter than I would have expected. Height 4⅜” Top 10¾” Bottom 5¼”

    Small Green Jug or Pitcher: Yellow clay, bottom incised USA & No 2. Dark green glaze is really something in person. Semi-matte, pearlescent like shimmer, almost gunmetal look. I was thinking this could be an early salesman example, but I wasn’t able to find anything else similar in shape. Height 3⅞ Width 2⅜ Width Top 1” Bottom 1⅝”

    Lustre Bowl: Hand built pedestal bowl. White clay, possibly chalkware. Apple green and canary yellow sponged/mottled glaze with highly metallic/reflective gold detail. Hand painted tulip flowers done in a primitive manner on the outside, bottom of interior has a star shape. No legible marks or signatures Bottom interior under star shows possible mark under glaze but I am not certain. Maybe British? Height 2⅝” Width 6⅜” Top) 6” Bottom 2½”
