| | MP 010625 | Excessively Rare Medieval 'Red Ware' Cooking Pot Clay, 820 grams; 244.48 x 105.06 mm. Circa 15th century AD. A stunning large medieval cooking pot with three short feet on the rounded base. The sides are of a ribbed style, high with a large out stepped rim and rolled lip, the handle is short but of thick section and probably would have had a wooden handle sleeve over the end. Most of the glazing on the outside has been burnt away and there are some heat fractures in the base but this is all due to the use it had. A rare piece in very fine condition. | £175.00  |  |
| | MP 004504 | Rare Medieval 'Ship Wreck' Storage Vessel Clay, 3135 grams; 282 x 205 mm. Circa 10th century AD. A rare large medieval storage pot with wide globular body and thick rolled rim. Around the top of the body and below the rim are four looped mounts of which two are fully intact, these must have been used to suspend the pot with rope as they are too small to have been used as handles. The whole surface inside and out is covered with encrusted shells and barnacles. This item was recovered from a ship wreck of the coast of Vietnam. A rare piece in very fine condition. Ex DRG Antiquities. | £425.00  |  |

A Dutch blue glazed delft pottery tile, it depicts a windmill and a house and grass with flowers decorating each of the angles.
