Underglaze Painted Chinese Porcelain Saucer Body/Rim Sherd

One small Chinese-export porcelain body/rim sherd from a saucer with a blue underglaze painted decoration on the interior. The interior rim is decorated with a cluster of three hanging grapes beneath repeating diagonal lines along the edge of the rim. The motif may be "Grape and Bamboo" or "Grape and Squirrel" but is too fragmentary to determine.
