Pennsylvania German, American, Philadelphia Museum of Art

Hi Dear Folk,

I thought you might like to see how Pennsylvanians lived three hundred years ago.  Some of the early settlers were German.  Hence such names as Germantown Pike which I travel every day, and Germantown.

The pottery you see here was all made within a fifty mile radius of where I live.  And this can all be found at the Philadelphia Museum of Art.

  2. Imagine eating from a three hundred year old place! This is a beautiful collection, and seemingly well preserved. Thanks for sharing!

    1. Yes so lovely and reminded me of some pottery I have bought in England from a pottery shop in Quendon, Essex
