About this work
Three porcelain fragments, one consisting of three glued-together pieces, of various plates made for export to Anglo-Saxon countries, Nanking-ceramic plate. In three pieces, one of which consists of two glued fragments. This object is 18th-century and therefore cannot belong to the cargo of the Witte Leeuw. It is unclear whether the object originates from the site or was later mixed, possibly with material from the Zeelelie.
