AN INCISED SPLASHED POTTERY BOWL Possibly Nishapur, Eastern Iran, 10th century Of circular shape, on a short splayed foot, with a straight rim, the red earthenware body covered with a white slip, incised with an umbrella motif to the centre with two lateral hatched semicircles, and splashed in green, yellow and brown under a transparent glaze, rosettes to the centre and stippled motif to the rim, the exterior plain except from four hatched ovals below the rim, 16.5cm diam. Islamic splashed wares are undoubtedly indebted in some extent to sancai Chinese ceramics; their decorative technique and chromatic solution are indeed very close. For an in-depth discussion on splashed wares, please see O. Watson, Ceramics from Islamic Lands, London, 2004, pp. 199 – 203, especially fig. Cat. F.5.
