Historical Information
Type: Green-glazed earthenware pottery sherd
Fabric: Cream to buff earthenware with graduated olive-to moss-green glossy glaze and fine surface crazing.
Date: c. 1890-1960
Find Location: Suffolk
Extra information:
The fragment displays a distinctive graduated green glaze fading from darker olive tones into softer yellow-green hues, creating an ombré-like effect across the ceramic surface. This style of tonal glazing is commonly associated with decorative art pottery and later studio ceramics, where flowing glazes were intentionally encouraged to pool and transition during firing. Fine crazing visible across the glaze surface developed naturally over time through age and thermal stress. The cream to buff earthenware body and softened edges suggest prolonged environmental exposure prior to recovery. The relatively simple yet atmospheric glaze treatment may indicate the original object was decorative rather than utilitarian, possibly deriving from a small bowl.
