About this work

Sherd of a cup made for export to Anglo-Saxon countries, Nanking porcelain plate. This object is 18th-century and therefore cannot be from 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.
