ANATOLIAN – TURKISH KUTAHYA glazed ceramic pitch

ANATOLIAN – TURKISH KUTAHYA glazed ceramic pitcher. Circa: 1900. Iznik was the center of famous ceramics during Ottoman Empire. After Iznik ceramic production slowed down at the end of 17th century, Kutahya followed the tradition in its own style using many similar designs and colors. Plates, Ewers, water Pitchers, wall Tiles and many more shape and type ceramics were produced for many years. Tradition still survives in Kutahya and Iznik under revival traditions. This beautiful pitcher / Jar was painted with local colors and covered with glaze. It is made for keeping daily drinking water. Most part of the body has deep honey brown color with pistachio green top. The design with little girl on top goes back to old days village tradition. Little girls used to run and bring water from natural springs when family was working on the orchards. The hole in the handle is supposed to be used when it is full. Almost in perfect condition.

Tile Panel with Sphinx. Turkey, probably Konya, Se

Tile Panel with Sphinx. Turkey, probably Konya, Seljuqs of Rum period (1081-1307), late 12th - early 13th century Stonepaste; overglaze painted and gilded. Gift of Mr. and Mrs. Josephson, 1976. The Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, Exhibition, January 2023.
In Anatolia, ceramic wall tiles, for which Ottoman architecture later became so famous, first appear in twelfth-century Konya. There, tiles like this set decorated the palace pavilion of Anatolian Seljuq sultan Qilij Arslan II (r.1156-92). Both iconographically and technically, these tiles have affinities with Iranian Seljuq ceramic traditions.

SYRIA – Druze glass beaded ethnic hat. Size: 6″ /15 cm/ diameter – 3 ½ ″ /9 cm/ high. Semi colored transparent beads are used on hand knitted cotton background.

The Druze sect follow a lifestyle of isolation where no conversion is allowed into it or out of it.
