Turkish Castle

Pattern Category: Other Indian and Oriental

Object Type: Wares for Breakfast and Tea

Dimensions:

  • Height: 3.5 inches

Description:

This rare pattern was printed in blue on a small helmet-shaped earthenware cream jug.  Like The Turk, this design motif is from the Caramanian series, however the floral border pattern is different.  Drakard and Holdway maintain that these two patterns must have had a limited production given the small number of shapes manufactured.  Shown below is the opposite side of the jug.  Click on the image to enlarge it.
