Item Details
Description
**Originally Listed At $300**

Ancient Near East, Northwestern Iran, Amlash, ca. 1200 to 800 BCE. A sizable pottery bowl with stone-burnished surfaces. The piriform body features a carinated midsection, a corseted shoulder, and a flared rim. Amlash vessels were buried in large megalithic tombs, built by part of the Marlik culture. Despite its proximity to the large Mesopotamian cultures, the geographical barrier of the high Zagros and Elburz Mountains kept it relatively isolated and a very unique ceramic tradition developed there. Size: 8.9" L x 8.75" W x 6.3" H (22.6 cm x 22.2 cm x 16 cm)

Provenance: Private Greenwood Village, Colorado, USA collection, via inheritance; Leota Furlong Agett Persian Pottery collection, acquired in Tehran, Iran in the early 1960s
