Some countries prohibit or restrict the purchase and/or import of Iranian-origin property. Bidders must familiarise themselves with any laws or shipping restrictions that apply to them before bidding. For example, the USA prohibits dealings in and import of Iranian-origin “works of conventional craftsmanship” (such as carpets, textiles, decorative objects, and scientific instruments) without an appropriate licence. Christie’s has a general OFAC licence which, subject to compliance with certain conditions, would enable a buyer to import this type of lot into the USA. If you intend to use Christie’s licence, please contact us for further information before you bid.

Though the iconography on this bowl is made up of several different elements, they are all part of a well-established corpus of motifs which appear on mina'i ware. Sherds in the Metropolitan Museum of Art include a base depicting a camel, saddled yet riderless, within a similar hatched circular border (acc.no.20.120.119). Another sherd depicts a pair of figures sat by a tree with similar dotted leaves, of which the person on the right wears a striped tunic (acc.no.20.120.134 and 20.120.122). The same mock-kufic inscription, somewhat resembling the Arabic word al-dawla, often translated as 'wealth' is also found.

Complete bowls with the same decorative repertoire of figures seated by trees, hatched borders, and a mock-kufic rim have been sold in these Rooms, 6 October 2011, lot 86 and at Christie's Paris, 6 May 2015, lot 108.
