Dish with Lustre Decoration

The Khalili Collections

The Khalili Collections

The flat dish is entirely glazed on both its interior and exterior surfaces, and marks on the underside of the base may have been caused by the use of a spacer. Many elements of the design – such as the large half-palmettes and the large saddle cloth – are found on another lustre-decorated bowl in the Collection, and the two pieces were most probably produced in the same atelier and executed by the same painter [see POT 683].
