The history of Persian pottery goes back to the early Neolithic Age; during this period, styles were hand-built and often lacked decoration, but this wasn’t the case forever. Mid-century ceramics saw potters make lavish use of the locally sourced, internationally prized blues, cobalts and turquoises, using them to add colour and character to the home and table. This bowl illustrates this, with an intricate pattern reminiscent of Persian tiles. Please note, this item is a truly original vintage piece with slight imperfections and distinctive characteristics that add to its charm and celebrate its unique history.
