Underglaze Painted Chinese Porcelain Rim Sherd

One very small Chinese export porcelain rim sherd with an underglaze blue painted decoration along the interior. The pattern may possibly be Trellis in Blue, but it is difficult to determine due to the size of the sherd. The sherd may possibly be from a saucer, teacup or similar type of vessel.
