Traditional Southeastern/Mid-Atlantic-style Pottery
°•.-¦-•°°•.-:¦:-•° -:¦:- ~*~ -:¦:- °•.-¦-•°°•.-:¦:-•°MBR is now offering pottery based upon archaeological specimens from the mid-Atlantic region of the eastern US. We have manufactured paddles for maliation of the clay, exhibiting the patterns and designs found on actual examples. We are hopeful of adding complicated stamped patterns reflecting a number of southeastern and mid-Atlantic cultures, as well as cord- and net-marked styles as well as plain surfaced examples. We are currently using commercial potters clay, some of which is tinted with natural earth pigments to give some color-variations to the pottery.
In the future we hope to include pottery wares made from local clays, tempered with shell, crushed quartz, fine gravel and other traditional tempering materials. For now, however, we are limiting our production to the use of commercial clays.
