الوصف:

Mina’i is a modern collectors’ term for ceramics made in Iran during the late 12th to early 13th centuries. The term mina’i, translates as “enamelled” in Persian, designating the colored glass pigments used to paint detailed figural decoration on vessels or tiles, which were then fixed on the ceramic base by multiple firings. The use of a wide range of colors, including turquoise, red, green, purple, and black, also led these types of ceramics to be called by the Persian term “haft rang,” or “seven colors.” A full range of colors can be seen on the inside of this bowl, which is composed of a pattern of dark red, blue, turquoise, and black outlining, which is made possible by the enameling technique employed in the making of mina’i ware. A pseudo-inscription in black Arabic script encircles the bowl’s outer rim.
