Painted Tin-Glazed Earthenware Plate Rim Sherd

(1600 - 1800)

Three mending buff-bodied rim sherds from a plate with a white tin glaze on both surfaces. The interior is painted in dark blue with both negative and positive patterns. The painted pattern has curved lines along the rim and a geometric design on the marley. Some of the glaze is missing from the interior of the vessel. Simiar sherds have been found in neighboring contexts but these fragments do not mend.
