A wonderful rare Pitcher
Engraved in Arabic poetry
So you see the magnificence of Islamic art
Around the pitcher is a deep and complex chased brass border, comprising of many individual elements and with a punched ground. This border in turn encircled by a narrow geometric stepped chevron repeating border, with alternating copper chevrons. The pitcher has a broad rim which has also been heavily ornamented with entwining by a flower head.
Overall, a very good example of Cairo ware with lots of ornamentation which showcases the various different styles of this work in the one object. The central figural scene has been well executed and the tray displays very well indeed!
