A BLACK-PAINTED TURQUOISE-GLAZED WATER JUG Possibly Raqqa, Syria, 12th - 13th century? Pyriform, on circular splayed foot, with a tall cylindrical neck with everted rim, on the side a rope-twist handle, the body underglaze painted in black with lines running through its length and dotted motif on the neck, the turquoise glaze heavily oxidised, 28cm high. Rope-twist handles are not very common. Similar handles can be seen on jugs successfully sold at Christie's New York, 5 October 2011, lot 465; Christie's London, 26 October 2017, lot 58; and offered at Sotheby's London, 25 April 2012, lot 532. All these examples have been attributed to the Raqqa kiln production.Notes: Islamic & Indian Art
