Type series of knobs and restored bowls. About one-quarter of a crucible bowl, probably from a rather deep pear-shaped crucible. Rather sandy-grey fabric with much quartz grit. Around what is probably the rear lip of the crucible (i.e. away from the spout) is an outer wall in a buff, heavily grittted fabric, which is probably the springing for a lid. The outside of the fragment is coated with a grit-enriched slip which is highly vitrified and heat cracked.
