I just found this nice looking ceramic shard from an old Spanish grounds. The grounds date from the 1500s but this piece may not be that old. It seems like it was part of a kitchen pottery or vanity piece. Any ideas as far as ID and date period?

I have been researching online to learn about the piece of pottery found. It happens to be a shard of blue- white Chinese porcelain, most likely from the Qing Dinasty (1644-1911). The shard seems to be part of an antique bowl's cap. I retrieved some other shards that I will post soon.
