Ikhanid Bowl, 13th C CE

Description

Ikhanid Bowl, 13th C CE, now in the collection of the Minneapolis Institute of Art. From [artsmia.org](www.artsmia.org): *'The decorative technique represented by this bowl exemplifies a group of wares from the Ilkhanid period (1220-1336) typically associated with the Sultanabad area in Iran. The brown floral and bird motifs are painted in thick white slip (engobe) with black outlines and bluish-green touches under a transparent glaze. The white dots are a typical Sultanabad motif, and molded kufic script encircles the outside rim.'* More information [here](https://collections.artsmia.org/art/501/bowl-iran)
