No idea, pottery.

I've no idea what this is, I think I've seen something similar before but my brain keeps doing that to me x;
Fairly fine ceramic with what looks like some sort of plant with the same lines either side of it. Almost white colour and fairly light, found on a multi period site within the last week.

Catalogue says 1780-1820 for these two (both with makers mark SR). I don't know if these decorations were produced wider in time. I know these styles are 'later' in the clay pipe ranges so i don't think it will be much older, more quickly younger.
Good call,I have dugsimilar decorated ones on late victorian ash pits ::g
