Abstract
: 
This volume brings together over 1,000 years of Persian Islamic pottery. With more than 500 illustrations, technical treatises, and commentary, Ceramics of Iran assembles a collection of rarely seen treasures from the Persian world and presents a collective history of its ceramic tradition. Included among its catalogue entries are translations of the objects' inscriptions, providing readers with an understanding of the cultural heritage from which these items are derived. In addition, the book contains new research and material from previously unknown sites. Featuring all new photography of nearly 250 objects, Ceramics of Iran brings the contributions of Persian art into a wider historical context, along with a wealth of images to demonstrate the full scope of its intricate beauty.
