Notes	The decoration on this Iznik dish consists of a large central saz leaf between flowering stalks. The Ottoman court renewed its patronage of Iznik ceramics during the construction of the SÃ¼leymaniye mosque in Istanbul in 1550â1557. The first Iznik tiles were produced, and potters added a bright red to the range of colours painted under the glaze using a special liquid clay. In the following decades, Iznik potters decorated high-quality tiles in red, green and tones of blue on a white ground. Dishes, bottles and other vessels had similar decoration on white or coloured grounds.
