Slip Trailed North Midlands/Staffordshire-Type Slipware Body Sherd

One rather unusual body sherd from a North Midlands/Staffordshire slipware vessel with a buff body and wide trailed slip lines running vertically along the interior. The exterior appears undecorated. The sherd is angled and appears to be from near the base of the vessel. The sherd is glazed on both surfaces and there are visible turn rings on the interior. Possibly from some type of bowl or similar type of vessel with visible decoration on the interior.
