Dear Hist Arch'ers,
My students and I have come across some unusual ceramics from the Market
Street Chinatown in San Jose; we've been unable to identify them with the
standard references. Perhaps some of you have seen them elsewhere?
Pictures are posted on our project website:
http://marketstreet.stanford.edu/
They are:
1. A perforated, oval-shaped whiteware dish
2. A porcelaneous stoneware rice bowl with an unusual and very stylized
underglaze motif
3. An eight-sided porcelain cup with a floral overglaze motif.
Any assistance would be gratefully appreciated - thanks so much
--Barb
