- Lot Description
**First Time At Auction**
Near East / Holy Land, late Byzantine Empire, ca. 13th century CE. A pair of well-preserved pottery bowls with a decorated interior that is incised with linear patterning and a bird. The bowls are similar in shape, both rest on a ring foot and the broad dish flares upward to a thick rim and basin. The first bowl has two narrow bands of repeated triangular motifs encircle the interior body, with an interlocking abstract floral motif in tondo, and the larger bowl has a bird and abstract foliate stems or branches. Remains of a white glaze slip is still present over much of the interior surface of both, a decoration technique called sgraffito, with the design incised through a white slip coating to reveal the red clay body beneath. These bowls were made and exported throughout the Empire, and have been found in numerous shipwrecks, especially in the Aegean Sea, and these two bowls a with marine deposits and creature activity on much of the exterior. Size (bird bowl): 10" W x 3.75" H (25.4 cm x 9.5 cm)
Provenance: East Coast collection, New York Gallery, New York City, New York, USA, acquired before 2010
