	Westerwald Stoneware
		In the late 16th century, Raeren potters moved to the Westerwald, in some cases even taking Raeren molds, and in the first half of the 17th century, Raeren and Westerwald products are "virtually identical" (Noël Hume 1991:280; Gaimster 1997a:251).

	Raeren Stoneware
		On Virginia excavations, blue and gray German stonewares are typically called "Westerwald." Some of these are actually products of Raeren, which by 1587 invented the blue and gray decoration associated with the Westerwald (Gaimster 1997a:225, 251).
		This confusion results from late 16th-century Raeren potters moving to the Westerwald, and in some cases continuing to use Raeren designs until the later 17th century (Gaimster 1997a:226).
		Westerwald blue and gray is relatively common in Virginia, but it is unclear what percentage of this is actually Raeren, although one example has been found in James Fort.
