Bowl

Byzantine

On view at The Met Fifth Avenue in Gallery 205

Despite their often bellicose political relationships, ceramic technology and other cultural traditions linked the Byzantine empire and the Islamic world. This bowl was influenced by similar works produced in the early Islamic world. The cords on the bowl were added during restoration.
