Notes
Iznik slipwares are rare and were in vogue for a short time in the period 1550 to 1580 when potters sought new ways of enriching their decorative repertoire.. The fritware body was covered in a finely ground single-colour or monochrome tinted quartz slip. The range of colours included the relief -red, and salmon pink to chocolate brown. Designs were trailed in similar slip either left white or tinted cobalt for blue or with iron oxide (along with silica crystal) for the relief red. Details were often painted in manganese black.
