Slip Trailed Redware Body Sherd

One redware body sherd with a light red/orange body and a fairly coarse temper. The sherd is flat and unglazed on one surface. The opposite surface has thick lines of dark red and white slips beneath a yellow-tinted colorless lead glaze. The sherd is most likely from a pan or dish. Similar to a North Midlands/Staffordshire-type slipware but with a red paste.
