This blue dish has an incised design decorating its centre. It is one of the pieces produced by Iranian potters in the period 1600-1700. In the 16th century, ceramic production in Iran was on a modest scale. When the capital moved to Isfahan around 1600, the production of luxury dishes and wall tiles in a wide variety of styles and techniques rapidly increased. We cannot identify a particular centre of production of ceramic vessels. Surviving pieces illustrate the many techniques the potters used. These included underglaze painting and coloured glazes, and lustre, which was revived after 1650.

Fritware with glazing
Fiziksel açıklama
Shallow dish in fritware, with incised decoration of a geometric and floral design in white showing through a wash of blue under a transparent glaze. It is thought that this technique is not Chinese but Islamic, suggesting that this was the invention of Persian potters.
