Chase house ceramics!

Here are some pieces currently being worked on by our volunteers.  These are mending projects in progress, and hopefully will become full pieces once complete sifting though the Chase house findings!  There are some really spectacular artifacts being put back together.
        This two handled vessel is possibly a tureen constructed of pearlware. Pieces were discovered between 46 and 60 cm deep in the soil. c. 1780-1840
Some freshly washed artifacts
Still many boxes to be processed but the work is still progressing greatly!
