The decoration on this bowl is characteristic of the pottery production centres in Northern Iran. The bowl was covered with a thick white slip and then the backround, as seen here on the wide rim, was carved away. This left the decoratiom of a band of stylised leaves in low relief. The background was then filled, rubbed in, with iron oxide to create a dark effect. Traditionally, this has been known as 'Garrus ware' after the region in NW Iran where similar pottery has been found.
Tarihsel bağlam
Lane, Early Islamic Pottery: pl.33B and p.26 Good evidence these wares were made at Astkand and other remote villages in the Garrus district of Kurdistan (SW of the Caspian Sea). Watson, Ceramics from Islamic: incised through slip splashed wares first appear in 10th century Iran. They continued into the 11th century with a more controlled use of colour. "Aghkand£ wares - double incised lines not only to outline design but also to contain colours. Wilkinson: Cat.33 (Metropolitan Museum, NY) Bowl, graffiato, decoration on a white engobe, yellow-born streaks. Yaskand, 11th-12thc. This decoration has been effected by cutting through the white slip and applying iron oxide to those areas. This leaves the decoration in white against a dark brown ground. The streaks are due to the running of the iron-stained glaze as the bowl was fired. Has three spur marks which is a common Iranian custom.

Fiziksel açıklama
The body of this bowl is of a pinky-red colour. It is covered with a thick white slip. The wide interior rim has been heavily carved with a gauge creating a band of stylised leaves in relief. It appears that iron oxide has been rubbed into the carved out background of this rim and then splashed over part of the interior.
