Small Redware Baking Dishes
These reproduction redware baking dishes were produced from an original mold in the collection of Old Winston Salem House and Garden Museum. On a special tour of collections I had the pleasure to see the original mold and fortunate to find reproductions in the museum shop.

Plate Cover Copper
I have had several inquiries as to what the copper piece is that I am holding in my blog post Wyck’s Food Festival (posted 6/24/2011) that I used to cover the food. That piece is a reproduction of a 1500-1650 original plate cover made by Peter Goebel of Goosebay Workshops. The piece worked perfectly for the samples.
Royal Selangor Pewter
Many years ago now, I found (just browsing in a mall) a reproduction of a tulip pewter plate that had a Victoria and Albert symbol on it. I almost did not purchase the plate but I am very happy that I did as I have used it so often. The plate is still available from Royal Selangor Pewter. Each plate is marked with the Royal Selangor tradmark, the V & A logo, and the year of manufacture in Roman numerals. The date on my plate is MCMXCVI.
Old Sturbridge Village Museum Store
I always check the tinware section of the Old Sturbridge Village (OSV) Museum Store when I visit OSV. Another one of my “great finds” was the tinware baker that is pictured in my blog post Men of Sorghum in Honor of Lincoln.

John Hudson-Clayptter
When I visited John Hudson, in Mirfield, West Yorks, England, I was so amazed at the simple kiln that John used to fire his masterpieces. The chaffing dish that I used in my blog post Too Stew Larks was created by the master potter, John. It is a beauty just as are all the other pieces of his pottery that I use in my demonstrations.
