Message:: [QUOTE="JB Miller, post: 9725059, member: 2476"]I think your pitcher was likely made by D F Haynes Chesapeake Pottery circa 1892. <a href="https://books.google.com/books/content?id=EFRODBTHoBUC&pg=PA327&img=1&zoom=3&hl=en&bul=1&sig=ACfU3U0TPa7qeJ32VHmECgVas7HDGqRdgA&w=1280" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://books.google.com/books/content?id=EFRODBTHoBUC&pg=PA327&img=1&zoom=3&hl=en&bul=1&sig=ACfU3U0TPa7qeJ32VHmECgVas7HDGqRdgA&w=1280" rel="nofollow">Here's a photo from a 1909 book, 'The Pottery and Porcelain of the United States' by Edwin Barber</a>. It's part of a semi-porcelain toilet set. Haynes didn't always mark their stuff. <a href="https://books.google.com/books/content?id=0yFIAQAAMAAJ&pg=PA328&img=1&zoom=3&hl=en&bul=1&sig=ACfU3U1a2zsyU8SKV_tRjLdepqxQAPMUKA&w=1025" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://books.google.com/books/content?id=0yFIAQAAMAAJ&pg=PA328&img=1&zoom=3&hl=en&bul=1&sig=ACfU3U1a2zsyU8SKV_tRjLdepqxQAPMUKA&w=1025" rel="nofollow">Here's the following page from the book noting that the Montessan toilet set was copied by 'a celebrated English firm'</a>. While your pitcher isn't an exact match to the photo I have seen marked Haynes pieces where there are variations to a design and given a different name.[/QUOTE]
