Description

An irregular, angled sherd of pottery shown against a pale card. The upper edge has white painted looping swags, with two drop-shaped white motifs hanging beneath them. Below, a band of closely spaced vertical rounded ribs runs across the middle, and the lower part is plain, with a worn, scratched surface and a diagonal crack.
