Bennington verses Staffordshire: We see similar pitches assigned to Bennington, those with slightly concave bottom and unglazed foot rims are said not to be Bennington; this jug features a “highly concave” bottom as displayed on page 40, figure 43 of Richard Cart Barret’s How to Identify Bennington Pottery; Barret discusses variants.
