Thin, hard, grey, orange or buff stoneware paste.

Surface is brown and lustrous, often with a burnished metallic appearance produced by the use of a lustrous brown slip under very fine salt glazing. Glaze color can vary from light brown to dark brown.

Decoration can include applied grog or crumb elements, machine-turned and rouletted patterns, applied molded elements, sprigging, piercing, and incised names, dates and floral elements.

Fragments often have a thin white line separating the glaze and body.
