Medieval & Later — Pottery
Medieval pottery reflects the development of domestic life, trade and craftsmanship across Europe. Stoneware vessels from the Siegburg and wider Rhineland region were widely exported during the 15th and 16th centuries, prized for their durability and distinctive salt‑glazed surfaces. This section includes jugs and drinking vessels typical of the period, many in excellent condition and representative of everyday medieval household use.
