Islamic Glass Bottle in the Metropolitan Museum of Art, September 2019
Enameled and Gilded Bottle
late 13th century
Object Details
Title: Enameled and Gilded Bottle
Date: late 13th century
Geography: Attributed to Egypt, possibly Cairo
Medium: Glass, greenish; blown, folded foot; enameled and gilded
Dimensions: H. 17 1/8 in. (43.5 cm)
Max. Diam. 11 in. (27.9 cm)
Classification: Glass
Credit Line: Rogers Fund, 1941
Accession Number: 41.150
The size and delicate decoration of this bottle are remarkable; few such large or painterly examples of enameled glass are known. The polychrome phoenix on the neck soars above the central scene of mounted warriors wielding maces, swords, and bows. The warriors might well be participants in a horsemanship exercise, outfitted as combatants from the rival Ilkhanid and Mamluk states.
