Production: Unidentified Manises pottery
Tin-glazed earthenware dish decorated in blue and reddish copper lustre
Buff earthenware with cream tin-glaze, painted in blue and reddish copper lustre. Circular with curved sides and slightly everted rim, standing on a footring with a convex area within it. In the well within a circle there is a bird standing facing to the viewer's left amidst stylized foliage. The sloping rim is decorated with three blue plants with three stems and with lustred horizontal sprays of rounded leaves and further leaves and half-leaves in the background. A narrow and a wide band encircle the rim. On the reverse, there is '10' or 'in' in the middle surrounded by six small swirls, all in lustre. There are two suspension holes at the top, and six spur marks in the middle (or three spur marks and three flaws in the glaze).
