拍品专文

Stands or tables were a regular product of the Syrian potteries in the 13th century, though those known are more commonly rectangular than they are hexagonal (Oliver Watson, Ceramics from Islamic Lands, London, 2004, p.298). Other hexagonal examples, like ours, are in the David Collection and the L.A.Mayer Collection, dated to the 13th century (Kjeld von Folsach, Art from the World of Islam in the David Collection, Copenhagen, 2001, no.201, p.163 and R. Hasson, Masterworks from the Collections of the L.A. Mayer Museum for Islamic Art, Jerusalem, 2000,). The elegant scrolling motifs which are executed in deep relief of our table find parallels in a tile in the Aga Khan Collection also dated to the 13th century (Schätze des Aga Khan Museum. Meisterwerke der islamischen Kunst, exhibition catalogue, Berlin, 2010, no.62, p.111).
