Slip Painted 'Sari' Bowl - LK.115, Origin: Central Asia, Circa: 1000 AD to 1200 AD, Dimensions: 3.1" (7.9cm) high x 11.80" (30.0cm) wide, Collection: Islamic Art, Style: Sari Ware, Medium: Buff Earthenware, Of the later provincial pottery, Sari wares are probably the best known for their highly decorative quality and their likeable decoration. The name comes from a town in Northern Iran, at the southern tip of the Caspian Sea, to which finds were attributed. However, those finds were not properly documented and therefore there is some contention around the true provenance of the manufacture. It is however quiet widely agreed that this form of pottery was made in the Mazandran region.
