Fritware Painted
Fiziksel açıklama
Border tile of fritware (also called stone paste), painted under the glaze in two shades of blue. The central field is defined by two pairs of corner-pieces, which resemble the spandrels of an arch in shape (compare V&A: 1879:1, 2-1897). The corner-pieces contain a scrollwork pattern called rûmî in Turkish and based on conventionalized leaves seen side-on (half-palmettes), which appears as white on the dark-blue ground. The central field is occupied by an arrangement of two scrollwork patterns in light- and dark-blue, each with four main elements. One is a design of curving tendrils set with complex, stencil-like blossoms of two sizes and ending in small leaves (a mode of design called hatâyî in Turkish). The other is a rûmî pattern with cusped tendrils, centred on a small four-petal rosette and bearing four large half-palmettes and smaller palmette finials.
