Kashan fish cup


I don’t really care how the overglaze on this one turns out. I’m already very happy with how this design has turned out.


I copied this design from the bowl above. I’ve found two images of it but other details are slim. It is captioned ‘ Bowl with fish (late 13th to mid-14th century), Iran, probably Kashan. Stonepaste; black decoration under transparent turquoise glaze. The Hossein Afshar Collection’. I’ve found a similar bowl at the Art Gallery of South Australia here but it doesn’t have quite the same fishy swirl.



This is going to look amazing once it is green!
