ملاحظات
Incised lines create the segmented decoration on the outside of this little pot. It is one of the pieces 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.

Fiziksel açıklama
Large dark blue rounded shaped bottle in heavy glazing and a short neck. It has vertical incisions down the body of the bottle under the glaze, showing a soft green underglaze. It must have been covered all over with a turquoise slip, and when that was dry, glazed in a darker manganese glaze which was incised through, to reveal the turquoise colour underneath.
