| Description of works | 【Turquoise blue】 In Iran in the 12th and 13th centuries CE, bright blue pottery achieved with an alkaline glaze containing copper became popular. This piece, considered to be modeled after a metallic vessel, was heavily influenced by such pottery. Attached to the surface are oval relief decorations made in molds. When this jug was first made, the surface must have had a glassy glow, but after many years, patination and cracking have occurred. However, these features of weathering also contribute to making this jug an attractive piece. |
