Painted Tin-Glazed Earthenware Body Sherd

One small buff-bodied tin-glazed earthenware body sherd with delicate painted and possibly sponged blue decoration over white glaze on one surface. The opposite surface is missing glaze. The sherd appears lightly burnt. The sherd is possibly from a household vessel or a tile but it is too small to determine.
