Tarihsel bağlam
Persian blue and white ceramics were primarily produced during the rule of the Safavid Dynasty in Iran (early 16th century to early 18th century). Iranian potters were almost exclusively preoccupied with making wares in the styles of Chinese blue-and-white porcelain some close copies and some more fanciful. Echoes of earlier traditions remained, in particular in the black-under-turquoise colour scheme that dates back in Iran to the end of the 12th century. Towards the end of the 16th century there was a widening of interest that blossomed in the 17th century to a wide range of styles and techniques in which blue and white plays a dominant but not exclusive role.

Fiziksel açıklama
Within a brown rim the dense reserve-painted pattern of the large dish is relieved by the outline of a cross. The bracketed tips reach out over the edge of the flange. The cross shape is filled with four flowery branches emerging from the central figure of a duck with a spotted head and an S-neck. The four remaining areas including the flange are crowded and filled with four lions looking outwards surrounded by large veined leaves and luscious flowers with smaller leaves. Below a brown rim, the outer flange and well are painted with six long narrow leaves, and two luscious flowers. Two small star shapes fill the intervals. Eight spur marks inside the base ring surround the recessed centre.
