Description
A very fine circa 1620 Ottoman Turkish Iznik pottery shallow bowl, plate, or charger of good size having under-and-overglaze polychrome decoration, the center with stylized tulips, representing 'Allah', and carnations, representing 'Muhammad', within an "ammonite scroll" border. A rare example in exemplary condition. Note: The 'white rectangle' shown in the lower rim is light reflection from the still lustrous glaze and not inpainting as it may appear.
