Mina'i porcelain bowl from Iran

The Iranian Mina'i porcelain bowl you mentioned was made between 1200-1299 AD and is now collected at the Minneapolis Museum of Art in the United States. The theme of this porcelain bowl is two people riding horses on either side of a tree, which often appears on Mina'i porcelain and may imply a hunting scene, a luxury enjoyed by the prince class. The material of this porcelain bowl is gypsum, with glazed painted decorations on top.
