Volume one in Brill's Arts and Archeology of the Islamic World, this book looks at Savafid Persian ceramics. It identifies the global change in seventeenth century Persian pottery as chinoiserie, the ability to copy Chinese ceramic models with skill. However, the book dates Persian interest in Chinese ceramics to the sixteenth century, and places it in context with other developments in Persian ceramics of the era. The book is divided into three sections: Savafid pottery in cultural context, a guide to identifying Savafid pottery, and a catalogue of Savafid pottery in the Royal Ontario Museum. The book also discusses field work in Iran that has identified the petrographic characteristics of individual workshops and therefore dispelled two myths: that Savafid pottery can be identified by location of manufacture by color palette alone, and that seventeenth-century vessels found at Kubachi should be attributed to Tabriz or northwestern Iran; they were made in the Isfahan region. While a volume for technical specialists in archeological ceramics or Islamic art history, it is attractively illustrated with many color images of Persian ceramics from the era.

In Persian Pottery in the First Global Age: the Sixteenth and Seventeeth Centuries the authors, L. Golombek, R. B. Mason, P. Proctor, and E. Reilly, challenge the commonly accepted narrative regarding Safavid pottery workshops and chronology and relate changes to historical context.

Recenzijos

"The Safavid period was a truly global age evidenced by its material culture. In this ground-breaking survey of both elite Iranian pottery and imported Chinese porcelain, Lisa Golombek and her team have separated out fact from fiction and extracted revelatory details from a paucity of documentary sources, to unravel a concise linear narrative. This critical survey places this overlooked luxury ware in its socio-economic and cultural context. Consumption is introduced through discussions of shape and purpose; caravanserai, Armenian merchants and East India Company distribution networks; and the importance of contemporary connoisseurship, imperial collecting and royal kitchens is introduced. The commoditization of the potteries, potters and technological innovations are other themes of discourse. Ubiquitous chinoiseries and other foreign patterns are justified by fashionability, inextricably linked with all luxury goods. Integrating modern petrography and archaeology with traditional art history, explored in Tamerlanes Tablewares, has further clarified the mystery of marks and production centres. Golembek, with authors Robert Mason, Patricia Proctor, and Eileen Reilly are to be lauded for providing a level platform for future researchers to build on." - Patricia Ferguson, Consulting Curator, Victoria and Albert Museum

"... lensemble constitue ą nen pas douter un ouvrage de référence, trčs attendu, et une réelle avancée pour lhistoire de la céramique iranienne des xvie et xviie sičcles. Le fonds de céramiques safavides du ROM est intéressant, sans źtre exceptionnel ou particuličrement diversifié ; en faisant de cette collection le moteur dun programme de recherche, Lisa Golombek est parvenue ą allier ą merveille conservation et recherche, haussant ainsi cette collection au rang de référence". - Sandra Aube, in: BCAI 31 (2016)
