| Comentarios: | Chinese Imari porcelain was made in imitation of Japanese Imari porcelain, which is rarely see in American colonial sites. It’s peak of popularity was between about 1715 and 1735. The overglaze enamel elements are unstable in buried conditions, and are thus often fugitive on archaeological examples. Fugitive elements appear as faint outlines on the surface of sherds, visible only at certain light angles. |
