See More of the Collection

The dish is a flat, open and almost bowl-like shape. The dish's exterior is beige stoneware decorated with dark brown flecks that decrease in number at the top of the base. There are some faint impressed lines along the dish's body. The interior is a light brown with dark brown flecks. The impressed lines on the form are also visible in the interior. As the interior moves toward the center of the bowl, the dark flecks begin to create lines that circle the interior form.
Creamware dish, possibly a stand for a cup or serving piece, squarish and lobed in shape, hand-painted just inside the rim with a pattern of grape vines with green grape leaves and purple grape clusters, with a brown band on rim.
Molded, hollow creamware figure of a recumbent ram on a plot of green grass, the ram highlighted in brown and blue.
Oval portrait medallion of white jasper with green jasper dip and white relief decoration with the bust of Benjamin Franklin in profile left.
