More Islamic Wares...

The larger jug was based off a Persian jug that I found at the Metropolitan of Fine Art in New York City.



The design itself is slightly altered, simplified a bit. The carving took me four hours as it was. Scraffitto decoration, black slip brushed onto a whitish clay body, then carved off. It was thrown thin as well. The final piece was given to His Majesty, Edric of Caid just recently.
