Stoneware, COMMERAW, Ovoid Jug, Incised and Cobalt Crescents and Tassels
COMMERAWS STONEWARE, Thomas Commeraw, Manhattan, N.Y.
Free African American Potter, Late 18th or Early 19th Century


Stoneware, COMMERAW, Ovoid Jug, Incised and Cobalt Crescents and Tassels, entire view 1

Thomas Commeraw was one of the earliest African American master craftsmen to
operate his own business in the United States. Thomas Commeraw, a free black potter
established his pottery in the Corlears Hook neighborhood of lower Manhattan in 1797,
successfully competing with well-known established stoneware makers including the
Crolious and Remmey dynasties.

This piece, a dramatic ovoid form, was made early in the production of Commeraw’s
stamp-decorated wares, displays his masterfully competent work; the vocabulary of
ornamentation displayed indicates that the potter’s ability and understanding of craft
rivaled that of his contemporaries…proportion, decoration, and utility. Skillfully-potted
using fine clay, brushed and highlighted with cobalt slip…a robust jug with rounded foot,
magnificently-tooled spout, and tapering-ribbed handle; the shoulder wide enough to
display the sharply impressed cobalt-highlighted drape and tassel design above cobalt-
highlighted two-line maker's mark, "COMMERAWS STONEWARE" .Note the reversed
and smaller “S’s” used within the impressed line – “COMMERAWS STONEWARE.
(Chip to spout; chipping to foot; base was drilled for lamp use; displays well.) (Height: 12")
