یادداشتها
This dish is decorated in just one of an astonishing range of styles Iranian potters used on fritwares in the 12th and early 13th centuries. Kashan potters experimented with painting designs under the glaze. Black, which remained stable during firing, was used under a clear or tinted glaze. Blue often ran, so they used blocks of colour that ran into themselves, as seen in the decoration on this dish. Fritware was also known as stone paste and quartz paste. It was developed by Middle Eastern potters as a response to the challenge posed by Chinese porcelain. Unlike high-fired Chinese porcelain, low-fired fritware was soft and porous, but like porcelain it was white all the way through and could be used to make convincing substitutes.
