The Seljuk period (1038-1194) was perhaps the most creative era in the production of Persian ceramics. In addition to lusterware, minai ware, and monochromatic blue glaze, underglaze-painted ceramics were also produced. These bowls represent one popular variant, black designs under a transparent turquoise glaze.
