Notes
In the Abbasid era, Samarra and Basra were thriving centers that provide rich evidence of active local craftsmanship. Muslim potters' admiration for Chinese porcelain was reflected in the production of single-colored white or cream-colored pottery coated with a thick, opaque glaze decorated with color spots.
