ملاحظات
Potters in Ottoman Turkey reponded to costly imported Chinese blue-and-white porcelain by disguising their red earthenware vessels with a white tin-glazed slip; vessels were then painted in cobalt blue before glazing. Their geometric designs show only a distant understanding of the Chinese porcelains that inspired them. These imitations, made over a long period, probably from the 14th century to the early 16th, were widely distributed. It was first excavated in the ruins of ancient Miletus in south-west Turkey, and consequently, came to be known as 'Miletus ware', however, as wasters and kiln debris of this type of ware have been excavated at Iznik in north-west Turkey, much is now attributed to Iznik, although it may also have been made elsewhere.
