Pottery: Unidentified Staffordshire Pottery
Earthenware sauceboat, moulded with overlapping leaves and decorated with coloured glazes
Dark cream earthenware, moulded in two halves, with an applied moulded handle, and decorated with manganese-brown oxide colour, and green, yellow and clear lead-glazes. Part of the base is unglazed, and there is an unglazed area on one side of the interior, possibly a finger mark. The boat stands on an oval base with slightly pointed ends. The sides are moulded with cabbage leaves with serrated edges at the top of the sides and lip. The ear-shaped handle is moulded with a short leaf at the top which forms the thumb piece, and two longer leaves down its back, the lower one having a kick at the bottom, and is glazed green overall.
