This collection of videos is for my ceramics students. I have made some videos especially to reiterate some of my lectures. The other videos not created by me may be valuable to your skill building and research.
This is a Canteen From China in the Jiangxi Province from the 15th century. This canteen has cobalt under glaze with a clear feldspathic glaze over it. This canteen was inspired by an Islamic prototype. On the front of this porcelain canteen is an eight-pointed star, which is a common element in Islamic art. Much of the design work on the surface is reflective of Jingdezhen Porcelains. This brass canteen from northern Iraq is from around the mid 13th century and has silver inlaid into the etched brass. It is a prime example of where the porcelain Chinese piece stems from. This canteen has imagery on it that depicts the virgin and child and other scenes from the life of Christ, as well as saints and knights.
