The warmest palette in the 1848–1899 run: a handbuilt cup whose sandy body reads terracotta-to-salmon, smudged with black, patched with matte white like plaster over brick, and collared at the rim in dark maroon crust. Three photos keep all three colors talking; fine fissures web the sandy surface low on the wall, texture the page records and characterizes no further.
Is it red like 1883? Warmer and softer — 1883 wears rust in patches over dark clay; 1895’s whole ground glows sandy terracotta under its black and white weather. Neither carries a color tag, both by the same clear-match rule. Piece 1895 of 10,000, listed at $18.95.
