Tigela de reflexos metálicos decorada com um cavalo alado

late 12th century
On view at The Met Fifth Avenue in Gallery 453
A cerâmica com reflexos metálicos foi introduzida no Irã no século XII por ceramistas que emigraram do Egito ou da Síria. É por isso que as peças iranianas de louça dourada mais antiga incluem características com peças similares feitas no Egito fatímida. Uma dessas peças iranianas é esta tigela, cuja decoração monumental incorpora um cavalo branco alado de tamanho grande sobre um fundo dourado claramente delimitado e uma borda festonada. Mesmo que esta peça tenha sido atribuída a Rayy (perto de Teerã), acredita-se agora que a única localidade onde se produzia louça dourada nesse período fosse Kashan, mais para o sul.
