Hello!


I found a big piece of sea pottery on the beach yesterday, and I was just wondering about the time period this piece may have come from.

Thank you for the help,

Matthew

Hi Matthew,

Here is a highly-recommended book on identifying blue and white pottery. It comes in 2 volumes:

Dictionary of Blue & White Printed Pottery 1780-1880

Unfortunately, it only covers pottery before 1880.

I found some assorted sea pottery in Adra Spain
by: Emma

I found a few pieces of assorted sea pottery in Adra Spain in may of 2018. Any idea how old it might be? They range from white to almost any other color, some have patterns of stripes in multiple colors against a gray background or are floral patterned. I was thinking maybe around 80 years, but I'm not sure. The texture used to be glazed and smooth, but now most of them lost their color and have been turned back into rough clay.

Well done and I hope you get to identify just where it came from etc.

Love to hear if you do.
