Two confronted sphinxes - female-headed lions with the wings of eagles - perch above his head, offering protection. Note the richly-patterned costume of each courtly personnage, elaborately painted to echo the sumptuous silks of the Seljuq élite. Mina'i ceramics - created during a narrow window of time, most probably in the city of Kashan - often show the luxurious pleasures of royal life, a topic of fascination for the mostly middle-class clientele who purchased the bowls.</schema:description><schema:artForm>(not assigned)</schema:artForm><schema:url>http://collection.shangrilahawaii.org/objects/4392/rdf</schema:url></schema:VisualArtwork></schema:itemListElement><schema:itemListElement><schema:VisualArtwork><schema:image>http://collection.shangrilahawaii.org/internal/media/dispatcher/20699/full</schema:image><schema:name>Molded Lusterware Star Tile with Entwined Cranes</schema:name><schema:dateCreated>13th - 14th century</schema:dateCreated><schema:artMedium>Stonepaste, polychrome pigments, luster</schema:artMedium><schema:artForm>Ceramics</schema:artForm><schema:url>http://collection.shangrilahawaii.org/objects/4423/rdf</schema:url></schema:VisualArtwork></schema:itemListElement><schema:itemListElement><schema:VisualArtwork><schema:image>http://collection.shangrilahawaii.org/internal/media/dispatcher/20699/full</schema:image><schema:name>Cobalt and Lusterware Bowl with Floral Motifs</schema:name><schema:dateCreated>17th century</schema:dateCreated><schema:artMedium>Stonepaste, polychrome pigments, luster</schema:artMedium><schema:artForm>Ceramics</schema:artForm><schema:url>http://collection.shangrilahawaii.org/objects/4478/rdf</schema:url></schema:VisualArtwork></schema:itemListElement><schema:itemListElement><schema:VisualArtwork><schema:image>http://collection.shangrilahawaii.org/internal/media/dispatcher/20699/full</schema:image><schema:name>Mosaic Tile Panel with Qur'anic Inscriptions in Thuluth Script</schema:name><schema:dateCreated>20th century</schema:dateCreated><schema:artMedium>Stonepaste, polychrome pigments</schema:artMedium><schema:artForm>Ceramics</schema:artForm><schema:url>http://collection.shangrilahawaii.org/objects/4513/rdf</schema:url></schema:VisualArtwork></schema:itemListElement><schema:itemListElement><schema:VisualArtwork><schema:image>http://collection.shangrilahawaii.org/internal/media/dispatcher/20699/full</schema:image><schema:name>Polychrome Inscription Tile</schema:name><schema:dateCreated>19th century</schema:dateCreated><schema:artMedium>Stonepaste, polychrome pigments</schema:artMedium><schema:artForm>Ceramics</schema:artForm><schema:url>http://collection.shangrilahawaii.org/objects/4143/rdf</schema:url></schema:VisualArtwork></schema:itemListElement><schema:itemListElement><schema:VisualArtwork><schema:image>http://collection.shangrilahawaii.org/internal/media/dispatcher/20699/full</schema:image><schema:name>Steel Katar (Push Dagger) Inset with Gems and Enamelled Gold Hilt</schema:name><schema:dateCreated>18th - 19th century</schema:dateCreated><schema:artMedium>Steel, enameled gold, rubies, emeralds, diamonds</schema:artMedium><schema:artForm>Metalwork</schema:artForm><schema:url>http://collection.shangrilahawaii.org/objects/4884/rdf</schema:url></schema:VisualArtwork></schema:itemListElement><schema:itemListElement><schema:VisualArtwork><schema:image>http://collection.shangrilahawaii.org/internal/media/dispatcher/20699/full</schema:image><schema:name>Bell Shaped Bidri Ware Hookah (Water Pipe) Base Inlaid with Landscape Scenes</schema:name><schema:dateCreated>19th century</schema:dateCreated><schema:artMedium>Zinc, silver</schema:artMedium><schema:artForm>Metalwork</schema:artForm><schema:url>http://collection.shangrilahawaii.org/objects/4057/rdf</schema:url></schema:VisualArtwork></schema:itemListElement><schema:itemListElement><schema:VisualArtwork><schema:image>http://collection.shangrilahawaii.org/internal/media/dispatcher/20699/full</schema:image><schema:name>Gilt-Copper Lobed Bowl with Enamelled Geometric Motifs</schema:name><schema:dateCreated>16th century</schema:dateCreated><schema:artMedium>Enameled copper, gilding</schema:artMedium><schema:description>This bowl’s luminous surface was created through the tombak gilding technique, in which a copper vessel covered in powdered gold and mercury is fired in a kiln (the mercury serves to secure the gold).

The vessel’s faceted surface was achieved through the engraving and hammering of copper sheet, and colorful enameled roundels contribute further visual interest and sophistication.

Diamonds and rubies form floral designs interlaced with thin gold wire stems. The stones are set using the kundan technique in which strips of pure gold are applied around the stones to create the mount. The inner faces of the bracelets are decorated with an enamel design of oval cartouches containing central red flowers flanked by red birds on a white ground.</schema:description><schema:artForm>Jewelry</schema:artForm><schema:url>http://collection.shangrilahawaii.org/objects/4955/rdf</schema:url></schema:VisualArtwork></schema:itemListElement><schema:itemListElement><schema:VisualArtwork><schema:image>http://collection.shangrilahawaii.org/internal/media/dispatcher/20699/full</schema:image><schema:name>Gem-Inset Chandelier Earrings with Crescent and Fish Motifs; Enamelled Gold (Kundun) Floral Ornamentation on Reverse</schema:name><schema:dateCreated>20th century</schema:dateCreated><schema:artMedium>Enameled gold, rubies, white zircons, seed pearls, green glass beads</schema:artMedium><schema:artForm>Jewelry</schema:artForm><schema:url>http://collection.shangrilahawaii.org/objects/5126/rdf</schema:url></schema:VisualArtwork></schema:itemListElement><schema:itemListElement><schema:VisualArtwork><schema:image>http://collection.shangrilahawaii.org/internal/media/dispatcher/20699/full</schema:image><schema:name>Gold-Set Ring with Chrysoberyl and Rubies</schema:name><schema:dateCreated>19th -

This cabinet was purchased by Doris Duke (1912‑93) in Paris in February 1938, on her way to the Middle East and Iran.

The complex and costly technique required two firings; during the first, the brownish-red coloration of earthenware was transformed into opaque white through the application of a tin glaze; during the second, metallic oxides of silver and copper were fixed to the white surface. The end result was a luminous surface that imitated metals like gold, largely explaining luster’s widespread popularity throughout the Islamic world. In the eleventh century, the luster technique moved westward to Fatimid Egypt (909–1171), where an artificial white ceramic body (stonepaste or fritware) was invented, thereby precluding the need for tin-glazing. In the thirteenth century, the luster technique reached the Iberian peninsula and was produced in the Mediterranean city of Málaga, often under direct royal patronage. As in Iraq, Spanish potters used tin-glazed earthenware, rather than stonepaste. 

During the fifteenth century, Manises, a suburb of Valencia on the eastern coast of Spain, emerged as a main center of luster production. Manises wares were especially prized by Italian and French patrons, among others, and therefore commonly featured Christian iconography and European blazons. Like other examples of Spanish art combining Christian and Islamic aesthetics, Manises wares are generally classified as “Mudéjar” (from the Arabic, “tamed” or “submissive”). This term was used to refer to Muslims who submitted to non-Islamic law prior to Ferdinand and Isabella’s conquest of Spain from the Islamic Nasrid dynasty (1232-1492) in 1492. After the fall of Islamic Granada, all Muslims in the Iberian Peninsula were known as Mudéjars. Before 1492, Muslims and Christians had coexisted in Spain for 800 years, and their visual cultures were closely intertwined from the thirteenth century onwards.   

This dish has sloping walls double banded walls with a lion motif at center. The lion has a spiked tail and stands on four out strecteched legs with long claws on its paws. The lion's tongue sticks out. Surrounding the lion along the walls are two rows of large, repeated feather leaves. The exterior is decorated with concentric copper circles.

Doris Duke (1912–93) acquired approximately a dozen examples of Spanish luster in 1941 at the sale of the William Randolph Hearst collection. She displayed the majority of her Spanish ceramics in the living room, alongside a collection of over 200 Spanish luster wall tiles (48.168), which once adorned a ceiling of a church near Seville.
