Historic Chamber Pot Lid

3D Model

This artifact model is of a chamber pot lid that was found during excavations on MSU’s campus in 2005 as part of the university’s sesquicentennial celebration. Dated to before 1876, the chamber pot lid is made of ceramic, decorated with an ambossment of some sort of plant with berries or buds. Indoor plumbing was not commonly available in small-scale buildings until the late 19th century and were still used into the 20th century.
