SALE: Iznik Garden Oil Cruet
No additional discounts on sale items.
The lush scene reproduced on this porcelain oil cruet comes from a painted stonepaste dish (ca. 1575–90) in The Met collection. Crafted in the Turkish town of Iznik, which was renowned for its pottery workshops, this exceptional Museum piece is adorned with colorful carnations, tulips, and hyacinths, as well as two small birds subtly perched amid the tangle. A popular Ottoman literary trope, birds and flowers were pervasive decorative elements on 16th- and 17th-century Iznik creations.
