Description: About Ned Foltz Redware PotteryRedware pottery is the oldest form of pottery made by the early German settlers in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania and continues today using the local red clays. Foltz began in 1962 and has grown into one of the most popular folk potteries in the United States. From three generations of craftsmen, they have revived many old forms and techniques, including sgrafitto and slipware, both early forms of decorating redware. All Foltz pottery is made using 200-year-old PA German traditional methods except for the glaze, which is lead-free and can be used with food. Redware pottery cannot withstand drastic changes in temperature, but plates can be used for baking by wetting the back of the pottery to warm and make it less susceptible to temperature changes.The pottery will withstand dishwasher use. The back of the pottery should always be air dried before stacking. Great looking coggled edge 9.75 inch diameter rabbit theme pie plate can also serve as a shallow serving bowl with its depth of 1.5 inches; it was hand made and signed on the back in 1983 by C N Foltz.
