Description: | A rim sherd from a Coarse Sandy ware bowl of early post-medieval date. The sandy fabric is oxidised with slightly reduced surfaces and external sooting. It contains moderate fine mica. The bowl would originally have had a flat rim with an external upwards projecting flange, a rim form which may have acted as a lid seat. The bowl's body would have then narrowed at an angle of about 45 degrees and was probably internally glazed. A similar bowl is illustrated in 'Medieval and Post-Medieval Finds from Exeter' (1984, pp. 152-3, fig. 67 no. 1A). It is likely to be a south Somerset product. The style of the rim is characteristically sixteenth century in date. | Subjects: | Bowl | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Payne, Naomi - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
