Description: | The tile is incomplete. The fabric of the tile is quite a fine grained ceramic which has an orange surface with a grey core. The lower surface appears to be the original surface - it is quite shiny and smooth in place.
The other surface is decorated an incised pattern, possibly depicting heraldry. The surface has a white slip which has then been covered with a yellow glaze. Where the decoration has been incised, the glaze is more thick, forming a green colour.
The tile appears to be too narrow in depth (12.1mm) for a floor tile, but for a wall tile you would expect to see a white fabric. | Format: | text/html | License: | http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0/ | Publisher: | The Portable Antiquities Scheme | Rights holder: | The Portable Antiquities Scheme | Subjects: | archaeology | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Angie Bolton | Identifier: | http://www.finds.org.uk/database/artefac... | Language: | en-GB | Format: | text/html | Go to resource |
