For sale at Phoenix Ancient Art is a beautiful ceramic bottle from the Safavid dynasty which ruled in Iran from 1501 until 1736. The Safavids ruled over one of the greatest of the Persian Empires since the Islamic conquest of Persia in 644, thus this 11cm high bottle is a wonderful synthesis of two great cultures, Islam and Persia.
The bottle is simply, but elegantly adorned with a white floral decoration, which is painted on the light beige ceramic and then glazed in green celadon.
This bottle dates from about the 17th century, and is a beautiful addition to any antiquities collection.
