Notlar
Although the mina'i technique is usually associated with figural imagery, it was also used to create abstract ornamental patterns as seen here. It allowed the artist to make fine lines in several contrasting colors, which meant that patterns of increased complexity were possible. Here the artist has decorated the jug's body with an interlace of vegetal motifs, while the tall neck is covered with a repeating geometric pattern.
Tarihsel bağlam
Non-figurative minai'i wares are somewhat rarer than figurative which can be related to mural and manuscript illustration of 12-13th century Iran. Not much is known about the patrons of these wares nor the context in which they were used.
