- Consider the size of a piece
To determine the age of a piece of pottery, you can consider several factors such as the style in which it is painted, the use of color in design and background, the shape and uses of the piece, and the size of the piece. However, the item "To examine the size of a piece" is NOT a way to determine the age of a piece of pottery. Size alone does not provide a definitive indication of the age of pottery. While the size of a piece can sometimes help narrow down the time period, it is not a reliable method of determining its age. Other factors, such as the style, color, and use of the piece, are often more significant in determining its age.
