Mina'i pottery: The exquisite Iranian art lost after the Mongol invasion 🏺
Mina'i ceramics from Iran's Seljuk period transformed bowls into pictorial worlds, illustrating Shahnameh epics and royal hunts. Made from stonepaste and decorated with multiple firings, gold, and enamel, they were costly luxury objects. Flourishing in late 12th–13th century Kashan, the tradition disappeared amid the Mongol invasions, leaving rare surviving examples in the Met and LACMA. 🎨
