Description
c. 224-651 AD. Early Persian, possibly Sassanian. Beautiful shallow bronze plate with an extended rim. The outside is decorated with ribbed bands. The Sassanian empire which ruled from Afghanistan to Iraq during the third to seventh centuries AD is famed for the high quality of its ceremonial metalware, which was used both during banqueting and during religious rituals. Under the Sasanians Iranian art experienced a general renaissance. Artistically, this period witnessed some of the highest achievements of Iranian civilization. Metalwork and gem engraving became highly sophisticated. Provenance: From an old British collection of Asian Art formed in the 1990s on the UK and European art market. Size: L:20mm / W:265mm ; 1kg
