ملاحظات
The body of this little pot has relief decoration of rosettes. This piece is a good example of the effect potters in Iran achieved with glazes of a single colour combined with moulded or carved decoration. The pot is one of the items produced by Iranian potters in the period 1600-1700. In the 16th century, ceramic production in Iran was on a modest scale. When the capital moved to Isfahan around 1600, the production of luxury dishes and wall tiles in a wide variety of styles and techniques rapidly increased. We cannot identify a particular centre of production of ceramic vessels. Surviving pieces illustrate the many techniques the potters used. These included underglaze painting, coloured glazes and lustre, which was revived after 1650.
