William Adams IV Spatterware

It’s believed the Adams factory in Greenfield also produced Scottish Spongeware and Spatterware. Much of it was done by means of cut sponges, and was first made in Staffordshire by William Adams at his Greenfield pottery in 1845 to 1850. In order to introduce it he procured persons from Scotland who understood the process.

William Young & Co (1853-1879) of Trenton, New Jersey

After extensive research, our Appraiser feels that these Stone Ware Jugs were manufactured by William Young & Co (1853-1879) of Trenton, New Jersey due to their closer proximity to Bridgeton, New Jersey, via the Delaware River. It seems he got his start making utilitarian stone ware and most of the other companies in the area made other types of wares. What the original jug contained is not known, but could have contained any liquid, from whiskey to vinegar. Stone ware vessels were shaped by hand on the potter’s wheel, or in a wooden mould. After the freshly shaped vessel had air dried, somtimes Albany slip clay, which was dark brown in color, was used to coat the interior. The pieces were then placed in a bee-hive shaped kiln and fired at about 2100 degrees Fahrenheit. When the heat was at its maximum, a bucket of course salt was thrown into the kiln. The salt vaporized, covering all exposed surfaces with a shiny and somewhat pitted, or pebbled finish referred to as “salt glaze” These jugs are marked with an impressed number of 1,2 or 3 for the amount of gallons the jug would hold. We presume the jugs were then transported over to Stout, Dyer & Wicks in Bridgeton N.J. and filled with whatever liquids were required.
