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.” The central register of the bowl contains a repeated pattern of birds with wings exposed. A stylized floral motif marks the space between each bird. A raised wave pattern runs around the interior rim of the bowl, and a geometric motif is repeated along the exterior.
