In the 16th century, ceramic production in Iran was on a modest scale, but 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. Many techniques were deployed and included underglaze painting, coloured glazes and lustre, the latter was revived after 1650. Safavid potters favoured brilliantly coloured ceramics. The effect was often achieved with glazes of a single colour. Many of these wares have moulded or carved decoration. These monochrome wares reference the highly esteemed Chinese celadon wares imported in earlier centuries, but the bright turquoise colour gives it away immediately as an Iranian copy.
