This Safavid dynasty dish, dated to the early 17th century, showcases the artistry of anonymous Iranian potters. Its deep blue glaze provides a striking contrast to the intricate black and brown floral and avian motifs, characteristic of this era. The dish, with its elegant silhouette, exemplifies the high quality of Safavid ceramics, which were prized for their beauty and craftsmanship, and serve as a tangible link to the rich artistic heritage of Persia.
