26.2.31 Underside is dull and discoloured. The colouring on the top is good except for the bands which have faded. There is some surface damage here too.
34.10.18 Complete and intact. The surface is uneven all over, and the red glaze has been rubbed away in areas of prominance; for example, knees, stomach, chest and features of the face. There are indentations and air bubbles around the chest area, and on the back of the figurine. Here, there are also lots of scratches on the surface.
73.9.8 Two fragments. (a)The glaze on the rim and the inside of the fragment shows a few small scratches. On the rim and the outside of the fragment there are a few small areas of milky/white deposit. The black blob reveals an area which may have been the base of a handle. The colour of the clay inside here, is a more pink colour. Like the first fragment, fragment (b) shows evidence of small scratches on the glaze, both inside and out, but seems in fairly good condition, with no evidence of deposit.
E.63.5 Intact and complete, with a large crack half way down the body, and several chips missing from the base, a small crack originates here, the blue glaze is intact.
