- Lot Description
Ancient Near East, Iran, Nishapur, ca. 10th century CE. A beautiful glazed earthenware bowl of a wheel-thrown rounded form on a short foot and handsomely decorated with a large bird on the tondo complemented by stylized floral and geometric motifs in the field and linear bands decorating the interior rim. On the exterior rim are abstract motifs - perhaps intended to represent feathers or flora. The color scheme is brilliant - including chocolate brown, lemon yellow, and creamy beige hues - and the potter's eye for design is impeccable - with dotted passages to delineate the bird's feathering as well as that dare I say Picasso-esque avian head and the schematic quality of the decorative motifs in the field. A fabulous example of Nishapur pottery! Size: 9.125" L x 8.875" W x 3.75" H (23.2 cm x 22.5 cm x 9.5 cm)
