Historical Information
Type: Blue-decorated creamware or white earthenware pottery sherd
Fabric: Cream refined earthenware with pale blue blown or sponge-applied decoration beneath a clear glaze.
Date: c. 1860-1920
Find Location: Suffolk
Extra information:
The fragment is composed of a refined cream-white earthenware body decorated with pale blue blown or sponge-applied ornament beneath a clear glaze. The surviving decoration resembles branching seaweed or marine botanical forms, a motif commonly associated with Victorian and later coastal-inspired domestic ceramics.
Unlike formal transfer printing, the soft-edged blue decoration appears to have been applied using a blown, spattered, or sponge technique, producing a more organic and painterly appearance. The gentle curvature suggest the sherd likely originated from a domestic plate, shallow serving dish, or decorative tableware item rather than industrial ceramic ware.
