Redware Pottery by Ned Foltz
Ned Foltz of Reinholds crafts Pennsylvania pottery like that originally made in the 18th and 19th centuries. Using traditional methods of throwing and glazing, Ned's glaze is free of lead so his pottery is safe to use with food and drink. Foltz pottery is quite collectible, especially the hollow pieces featuring animals or birds. The plates are slip decorated with a wide range of Pennsylvania Dutch motifs, including birds, tulips, and pinwheels.
Decorated Bird Storage Jar with Lid, height 11" - $495.00

Thistles
and Thorns Redware Plate by Greg Shooner
Noted redware potter Greg Shooner of Ohio has beautifully
reproduced this important piece, using shards of the original
for this plate that were unearthed at 135 East King Street,
just two blocks from the Heritage Center Museum. Typical
of kitchenware used in Southeastern Pennsylvania in the
18th century, this plate carries the adage "Thistles and
Thorns can hurt me but sharp tongues much more."
13" diameter - $285.00
