One molded white granite body sherd. The sherd most likely belongs to a hollowware vessel, perhaps a pitcher. This fragment contains molded decoration in a motif that resembles a lotus petal, and the pooling of the blue-tinted glaze (used all over the piece) in the recessed portions of the molding highlights this decor. The sherd is slightly curved.
