Ham Green Pottery

Ham Green Pottery was produced between 1100 AD to 1250 AD at a hamlet above the village of Pill called Ham Green in the English county of Somerset.

Type A, believed to date from the 12th century have a yellow splashed plain lead glaze and have a diamond pattern decorating the rim.

Type B, a more recent product appears greener, due to the presence of copper in the glaze.
