    About 10 years ago, we were driving through upstate NY and came across a barn sale. The mold was deep in a box and we thought it interesting. As we were in line to pay, a guy behind us (guessing a dealer) offered to pay us $75. Of course that made us think it was probably worth twice that much. There are no markings on it and we've failed to find anything online with this shape (oval). We've got it displayed with some crocks and would love to have some story about it's origin.

      Not trying to be snotty, but just want to point out the exposed white clay on the setting ring means your mold is not redware .

      Don’t know who made it, but perhaps removing redware from your search terms might help you determine an attribution

      Ah, thank you for that.
