Description: | A base shard of a ceramic vessel from the medieval period. The pottery shard is fairly hard and has a laminated texture of a medium grey to purple colour. It has fairly frequent poorly sorted white and black inclusions (some quartz). There are purple ??blisters?? on the outside which are splashes of glaze highlighting the colour of the fabric. There are striatins and some surface pitting on the inside. The fabric is similar to coal measures purple fabric described in Hayfield (1985), Humberside Medieval Pottery, BAR 140. This is believed to date from the late 13th and early 14th century. The shard is 53.2mm in length, 41.1mm wide, and 25mm thick. It weighs 25.14gm. | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Cooper, Amy - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
