IDENTIFIERS ----------- id: 75691 accession number: C.62-1935 DATE AUDIT ---------- created: Saturday 6 August 2011 updated: Tuesday 1 December 2020 DESCRIPTIVE DATA ---------------- object type: fritware, wheel thrown, painted in turquoise, blue and lustre under or on a crazed, colourless glaze Shape: inverted pear shaped jar with straight neck and an everted triangular rim, sits on a low foot ring. Exterior: the rim is painted with a band of lustre. On the lower body a frieze of vertical lines in lustre imitate Arabic letters, while on the neck and body three similar bands of pseudo-calligraphy are painted in lustre on a dotted ground. The bands on the body enclose a frieze of palmettes, four of which are encircled by circles of blue or turquoise, and one section of calligraphy all of which are reserved on a lustred ground. On the lower body, the glaze covers the surface unevenly and leaves the fabric exposed in one area; it also pools slightly in places. A thinner glaze covers the lower body and base except for the rim of the foot ring. Interior: lustre paint on the rim continues on the interior. object type: fritware painted in turquoise, blue and lustre under a colourless glaze title: jar NOTES ----- type: history note value: Frank Brangwyn RA, from whom purchased LICENSING --------- text license status: CC0 image license status: CC-BY-NC-SA OWNERSHIP --------- instutition: The Fitzwilliam Museum department: Applied Arts collection: Frank Brangwyn Collection creditline: Purchased with the Glaisher Fund STABLE URL ---------- url: https://data.fitzmuseum.cam.ac.uk/id/object/75691 TECHNIQUES ---------- fritware, wheel thrown, painted in turquoise, blue and lustre under or on a crazed, colourless glaze throwing TECHNIQUES ---------- glazing (coating) CATEGORIES ------ category: fritware (stonepaste) DATING ------ creation date: 1200 - 1250 creation date earliest: 1200 creation date latest: 1250 culture: 13th Century, first half CREATORS -------- maker: Unknown DIMENSIONS ---------- dimension: Height units: cm value: 24.2 dimension: Weight units: g value: 987 dimension: Width units: cm value: 17.2 CITATIONS -------- Early Islamic Pottery The fine wares of Ayyubid Syria Raqqa Revisited, Ceramics of Ayyubid Syria --- IMAGES surrogate: large format: jpeg location: https://data.fitzmuseum.cam.ac.uk/imagestore/aa/aa14/C_62_1935_281_29.jpg height: 740 pixels width: 570 pixels surrogate: mid format: jpeg location: https://data.fitzmuseum.cam.ac.uk/imagestore/aa/aa14/mid_C_62_1935_281_29.jpg height: 649 pixels width: 500 pixels surrogate: original format: jpeg location: https://data.fitzmuseum.cam.ac.uk/imagestore/aa/aa14/C_62_1935_281_29.jpg height: 740 pixels width: 570 pixels surrogate: preview format: jpeg location: https://data.fitzmuseum.cam.ac.uk/imagestore/aa/aa14/preview_C_62_1935_281_29.jpg height: 325 pixels width: 250 pixels surrogate: large format: jpeg location: https://data.fitzmuseum.cam.ac.uk/imagestore/aa/aa14/C_62_1935_282_29.jpg height: 740 pixels width: 570 pixels surrogate: mid format: jpeg location: https://data.fitzmuseum.cam.ac.uk/imagestore/aa/aa14/mid_C_62_1935_282_29.jpg height: 649 pixels width: 500 pixels surrogate: original format: jpeg location: https://data.fitzmuseum.cam.ac.uk/imagestore/aa/aa14/C_62_1935_282_29.jpg height: 740 pixels width: 570 pixels surrogate: preview format: jpeg location: https://data.fitzmuseum.cam.ac.uk/imagestore/aa/aa14/preview_C_62_1935_282_29.jpg height: 325 pixels width: 250 pixels surrogate: large format: jpeg location: https://data.fitzmuseum.cam.ac.uk/imagestore/aa/aa14/C_62_1935_283_29.jpg height: 740 pixels width: 570 pixels surrogate: mid format: jpeg location: https://data.fitzmuseum.cam.ac.uk/imagestore/aa/aa14/mid_C_62_1935_283_29.jpg height: 649 pixels width: 500 pixels surrogate: original format: jpeg location: https://data.fitzmuseum.cam.ac.uk/imagestore/aa/aa14/C_62_1935_283_29.jpg height: 740 pixels width: 570 pixels surrogate: preview format: jpeg location: https://data.fitzmuseum.cam.ac.uk/imagestore/aa/aa14/preview_C_62_1935_283_29.jpg height: 325 pixels width: 250 pixels surrogate: large format: jpeg location: https://data.fitzmuseum.cam.ac.uk/imagestore/aa/aa14/C_62_1935_284_29.jpg height: 740 pixels width: 570 pixels surrogate: mid format: jpeg location: https://data.fitzmuseum.cam.ac.uk/imagestore/aa/aa14/mid_C_62_1935_284_29.jpg height: 649 pixels width: 500 pixels surrogate: original format: jpeg location: https://data.fitzmuseum.cam.ac.uk/imagestore/aa/aa14/C_62_1935_284_29.jpg height: 740 pixels width: 570 pixels surrogate: preview format: jpeg location: https://data.fitzmuseum.cam.ac.uk/imagestore/aa/aa14/preview_C_62_1935_284_29.jpg height: 325 pixels width: 250 pixels
