- Lot Description
Near East, Persia, Northwestern Iran, near the city of Tabliz, Safavid Empire, ca. 16th century CE. A wheel-thrown bowl formed from stonepaste (also known as fritware) with a lustrous layer of brilliant glaze in a style known as Kubachi ware, so-named for the city in the Damascus region where the style is believed to have originated. The hemispherical bowl bears a deep basin and rests on a squat, gently flared foot. The surfaces of the body are enveloped with turquoise-hued glaze with a scrollwork six-flower in the center of the basin bearing six petals filled with black curvilinear motifs. Above the floral adornment is a repeating program of block-form pseudo-text beneath a thin black stripe along the rim. Lucite display stand for photography purposes only. Size: 7.75" W x 3.5" H (19.7 cm x 8.9 cm)
For an example of a Kubachi ware bowl from the second half of the 15th century, please see The Metropolitan Museum of Art, accession number 17.120.70
Provenance: private California, USA collection, by descent, moved from Germany in 1997, originally collected in the 1970s in Hamburg, Germany
