Not in the sense that it is out of step with the times, but in the way it belongs to an older tradition of decorative craftsmanship — one where a vessel was treated as a canvas and every available surface became an opportunity for ornament.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"502\" data-end=\"956\"\u003eHand-thrown in terracotta and decorated with scrolling floral motifs drawn from classical Persian design, the vase is painted in a rich palette of warm earthen reds and deep turquoise greens. Stylised blooms, arabesques and foliate forms wrap around the body in continuous bands, lending the piece a pleasing rhythm and movement. The surface has acquired a softly weathered character over time, giving the decoration a mellow, almost fresco-like quality.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"958\" data-end=\"1300\"\u003eDating from the late 20th century, it was likely produced as a decorative floor vase, drawing on the rich visual language of Iranian and wider Islamic decorative arts. At approximately 70cm tall, it has enough scale to stand comfortably on its own, though it works equally well with a simple arrangement of dried branches or sculptural stems.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1302\" data-end=\"1394\"\u003eA handsome decorative piece with warmth, colour and just the right amount of faded grandeur.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 data-section-id=\"hrykuu\" data-start=\"1396\" data-end=\"1408\"\u003eCondition\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1410\" data-end=\"1608\"\u003eGood vintage condition overall. Minor chips to the foot rim commensurate with age and use, none of which affect the structural integrity of the piece.
