Bowl, late 9th–early 10th century, Probably from Iran, Nishapur, Earthenware; white slip with black slip decoration under transparent glaze, H. 2 15/16 in. (7.5 cm), Ceramics, The decoration of this earthenware bowl, rendered in black slip on a bright white ground, suggests a lively sense of playfulness on the part of its designer. The motif at its bottom is surely meant to be a bird, but two vine-like motifs are attached seamlessly to the head
