<p>[QUOTE="say_it_slowly, post: 12022, member: 50"]I'm not going to be of much help but here's what I've got. Usually coggling is done with a coggle wheel (I think) and is a repetitive impressed design. The design around the neck of your first piece almost looks incised to me so I'm not sure if it's coggled or not. I find this type of pottery to look very similar from country to country so I can't comment on whether it's American or not.</p><p><br /></p><p>Your other piece looks buff bodied to me rather than red bodied. It looks, what shall I say, not American to my eye but the problem of course is that people from all over brought their traditions for pottery making with them here. I have a ewer with the same type of strainer that I've been puzzling over for years as to it's origin. I suspect that mine and yours are European but I have nothing specific to base that on. Hopefully someone will have more to offer.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
