A South Somerset jug
Back to Time Period
Found in Friernhay in 1981, the jug illustrates the changes in the style of jugs introduced around the mid 15th century. Plain bases replaced thumbed ones, with a band of thin slip incised with a single line in sgraffito (scratched) technique. This example matches very closely finds for the kiln site at Donyatt in Somerset and probably comes from there.
