Bahrami, Dr. Mehdi.  "GURGAN FAIENCES"

Cairo Le Scribe Egyptien S.A.E.: 1949.

An important piece of research into 12th and 13th century Iranian
ceramics. The industrial city of Gurgan had not, prior to Dr. Bahrami's
research, been linked to faience production, but his extensive work with
the excavations there uncovered dramatic evidence that it was an important
ceramics center. The excavated pottery included a large number of
impressive, intact specimens, as well as the usual wasters, sherds and
kiln remnants. Dr. Bahrami was the Curator of Islamic Art at the Teheran
Museum and the author of several other books and catalogs on Islamic art.

Hardcover. 9"x12.5", 134 pages with 11 b/w plates and 33 illustrations in
the text, plus 98 b/w plates light wear, a little soil, but a nice copy,
with the errata sheet.  $200.00
