Image description

The decoration continues over the base. Possibly from Iran (North-West) or Turkey (Anatolia) or Mamluk Sultanate. This bucket has a European form but its decoration is Islamic and of the highest quality. Delicate contrasts of knots, cross-hatchings and curved forms (arabesques) recall pieces made, specially for Venetian patrons, by Zain al-Din, one of the few known Islamic craftsmen of the period. The handle is a later addition.
