Domestic Furnishings

Washboards, armchairs, lamps, and pots and pans may not seem to be museum pieces. But they are invaluable evidence of how most people lived day to day, last week or three centuries ago. The Museum's collections of domestic furnishings comprise more than 40,000 artifacts from American households. Large and small, they include four houses, roughly 800 pieces of furniture, fireplace equipment, spinning wheels, ceramics and glass, family portraits, and much more.

The Arthur and Edna Greenwood Collection contains more than 2,000 objects from New England households from colonial times to mid-1800s. From kitchens of the past, the collections hold some 3,300 artifacts, ranging from refrigerators to spatulas. The lighting devices alone number roughly 3,000 lamps, candleholders, and lanterns.

This transfer printed creamware pitcher is decorated on one side by a compass pattern and a commemoration to George Washington on the other.
Description
This transfer printed creamware pitcher is decorated on one side by a compass pattern and a commemoration to George Washington on the other. The compass design is headed by a scroll that reads “Come Box the Compass” while below is the text “Invented by Murphy a Dutchman AD 1229 first exhibited at Venice 1260 Improved by Giora of Naples 1309 its declination discovered by Hartman 1538.” The other side features an inset portrait of George Washington flanked by the allegorical figures of Liberty and Freedom. A twisting scroll around the portrait bears the names of 15 states, including misspellings of “Tenassee” and “Masachusett.”
This pitcher is part of the McCauley collection of American themed transfer print pottery. There is no mark on the pitcher to tell us who made it, but it is characteristic of wares made in large volume for the American market in both Staffordshire and Liverpool between 1790 and 1820. Pitchers of this shape, with a cream colored glaze over a pale earthenware clay, known as Liverpool type, were the most common vessels to feature transfer prints with subjects commemorating events and significant figures in the early decades of United States’ history. Notwithstanding the tense relationship between Britain and America, Liverpool and Staffordshire printers and potters seized the commercial opportunity offered them in the production of transfer printed earthenwares celebrating the heroes, the military victories, and the virtues of the young republic, and frequently all of these things at once.

Under the handle is a print of a flower and around the lip of the jug is a floral pattern. Remnants of gilding can be seen around the pitcher, and certain aspects of the ship scene have been hand-colored. Robert H. McCauley purchased this jug from Edward C. Ford of Marshfield, MA on October 21, 1938 for $60.00.

Description
The “Plan of the City of Washington” depicts the figures of Britannia and America examining the street plan of the District of Columbia. Britannia is shown pointing to the site of the Capitol building. The print is based on the street plan designed by Pierre Charles L’Enfant and completed by Andrew Ellicott in 1792. Finally, under the spout is a transfer printed medallion with the words, “A MAN / without example / A PATRIOT / without reproach” drawn from Thomas Paine’s “An Eulogy on the Life of General George Washington.” This jug was part of the George Horace Lorimer Collection and was purchased by Robert H. McCauley from Parke Bernet Galleries in New York on March 31, 1944 for $75.00. Lorimer was an editor of The Saturday Evening Post from 1899 to 1936.

This large creamware pitcher features both hand painted and printed decoration. On the front, hand painted in black and gold, is a scene of a ship being loaded with barrels.
Description
This large creamware pitcher features both hand painted and printed decoration. On the front, hand painted in black and gold, is a scene of a ship being loaded with barrels. On the reverse is a transfer print of the ship “The Constitution” which has been painted over with gold paint. Under the spout, within a medallion is the name “W&N Clark.” Remnants of gilding remain all over this jug. Maritime designs are especially common on English-made transfer printed creamware meant for the American market. Often stock prints of ships were repeatedly used by English ceramics printers. Although this jug refers to a real ship, the print itself is probably generic. Sometimes color was added to the print to make it more appealing to the consumer. This pitcher was customized with the owner’s name, however it is unclear who “W&N Clark” is.
The USS Constitution was one of the most famous US Navy ships of the early 19th century. Built in Boston in 1797, the Constitution saw action in the Quasi War with France, the Barbary Wars and during the War of 1812. Robert H. McCauley purchased this jug from John Schwarz of Baltimore, MD on October 4, 1940 for $150.00.

Description
This creamware pitcher is decorated with two transfer prints—one with a maritime print of a ship under sail, and the other depicting Masonic symbols in a similar fashion to the Masonic tracing board. Underneath is the text “Lodge No.25” Under the spout is the name “P. Delano.” Unlike many of the pitchers in the collection, attribution of ownership in possible in this case. The pitcher likely belonged to Peleg Delano, captain of the ship Three Sisters from 1796-1797, and a member of the Masonic lodge in Sidney, Maine. Robert H. McCauley purchased this jug from H. Grossman of Boston, MA on September 16, 1940 for $115.00.

Description
This large creamware pitcher is decorated a polychromed transfer print of an American sailing ship. On the reverse is a print of a monument commemorating Washington’s death surrounded by a chain of states which omits Vermont and Rhode Island, but includes Kentucky. The monument is an obelisk decorated with the All Seeing Eye and the phrase “First in war, first in peace, first in fame, first in virtue.” Various figures are shown mourning at the monument. Under the spout is the statement, “A present to Capt.n Nath.l Gunnison.” Under the handle are two printed flowers and black ink accents the handle, spout, lip, and base of this jug. Maritime designs are especially common on English-made transfer printed creamware meant for the American market. Stock prints of ships, like the one on this example, were repeatedly used by English ceramics printers, and given as gifts to Captains of merchant ships like Nathaniel Gunnison. Aside from generic maritime themes, George Washington is the most common figure depicted on English creamware pitchers of this period. His death in 1799 led to an outpouring of commemorative products celebrating his life and mourning his death. Robert H. McCauley purchased this jug from Joseph Kindig, Jr. of York, PA on August 5, 1938 for $100.00 as part of the William Randolph Hearst Collection.

Description
This transfer printed creamware pitcher was made by Herculaneum Pottery in Liverpool, England around 1800. The pitcher features transfer print decorations with two common themes. On the front is a polychromed transfer-print of an American sailing ship. It features an American flag with its stars arranged in a circular pattern and is titled “The President, Commodore Berry.” On the reverse is a transfer-print of an obelisk capped with an urn commemorating the life of George Washington. Located at the center of the obelisk is a profile image of Washington. The General is wearing his military uniform and is faced to his right. Above him is a wreath and below him on the obelisk are his birth and death dates. His birthdate is listed as “Feb.y 11 1732” following the Old Style calendar. Also on the obelisk are a shield with stars and stripes and a sword crossed with a palmetto branch. At the base of the monument are a female figure weeping and an eagle with its head down and wings extended. Above and below the transfer print are banners proclaiming, “WASHINGTON IN GLORY / AMERICA IN TEARS.” Under the spout, within a medallion, is the name “R. Moncreafe.” Maritime designs are especially common on English-made transfer printed creamware meant for the American market. Stock prints of ships, like the one on this example, were repeatedly used by English ceramics printers. George Washington is the most common figure depicted on English creamware pitchers of this period. His death in 1799 led to an outpouring of commemorative products celebrating his life and mourning his death. This jug contains a possible misspelling of “Commodore Berry,” as it could refer to John Barry or Oliver Hazard Perry, both officers in the early US Navy. Neither of them commanded the ship “The President,” which was indeed a real ship. Robert H. McCauley purchased it from Parke Bernet Galleries of New York, NY on March 31, 1944 for $60.00.
This pitcher is part of the McCauley collection of American-themed transfer-print pottery designs dating to the early 19th century. The creamware pitchers were imported from Staffordshire County, England when trade boomed between the newly independent United States and the British merchants of Liverpool after the War of 1812. Transfer printing involved placing a freshly inked print onto pottery, transferring the print’s design to the pottery which adhered to the ceramic when fired.

Description
This earthenware pitcher is decorated with a transfer print portrait of Thomas Jefferson on one side and a poem to Liberty on the other. The portrait of Jefferson is surrounded by a laurel wreath entwined with ribbon bearing names of the first fifteen states. Over the portrait is “Thomas Jefferson” while “President of the United States of America” is underneath. The poem is encircled by a ribbon bearing the names of fifteen states scrolling around fifteen stars. The poem is a stanza borrowed from Joseph Addison’s “A Letter From Italy To The Right Honourable Charles Lord Halifax.” It reads: “O Liberty thou Goddess! / heav’nly bright, / Profuse of bliss / and pregnant with delight. / Eternal pleasures / in thy presence reign. / and smiling plenty leads / thy wanton train.” The pitcher is signed by F. Morris Shelton, a Staffordshire potter operating in the early 19th century. Robert H. McCauley purchased this pitcher from Ginsberg and Levy for $110.00.

This pitcher is decorated with transfer prints a shipbuilding scene on one side and a spread-winged eagle on the other.
Description
This pitcher is decorated with transfer prints a shipbuilding scene on one side and a spread-winged eagle on the other. The shipbuilding scene portrays different stages of the shipbuilding process—trees being felled, logs carted to the building yard, logs turned into planks, and planks formed into ships. Below the scene is a verse from the song Adams and Liberty, “Our mountains are covered with imperial oak, Whose roots like our liberties ages have nourished / but long ere our nation submits to the yoke, Not a tree shall be left on the field where it flourish’d / Should invasion impend Every grove would descend, from the Hill tops they shaded our shores to defend / for ne’er shall the sons of Columbia be slaves, While the Earth bears a plant or the Sea Rolls its waves.” The opposite side of the jug features a spread-winged bald eagle similar to that from the Great Seal of the United States. Robert H. McCauley purchased this jug from A.T. Goodyear of Baltimore, MD on August 4, 1938 for $45.00.
