拍品专文

A fragment comprising the centre of a bowl, now in the Keir Collection, has exactly the same decoration of fish on a lustre ground (Ernst J. Grube, Islamic Pottery of the Eighth to the Fifteenth Century in the Keir Collection, London, 1976, no.178).

The complete absence of decoration across a broad band of the interior is the result of conditions in which it was under the ground. It is however very unusual to find such a marked contrast in the degree of preservation between different bands on a bowl that has remained intact.
