About this work

Teacup made for export to Anglo-Saxon countries, 50% present. Consists of two fragments glued together. 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 in, possibly with material from the Zeelelie.
