Description: | Pottery fragment of a finial in the form of a bird head made of black basalt ware with a dark purply-black manganese glaze and a fine buff-coloured fabric throughout. There are similar examples of figurative bird heads on black basalt ware vessels, dating from the turn of the 18th century, like two examples illustrated in Morley-Fletcher & McIlroy (1984) on page 289, Nos.9 & 14.
