A tall antique pottery bottle decorated in the Iznik style with birds among flowering branches and scrolling foliage. Painted in cobalt blue, green and manganese tones, the decoration wraps fully around the vessel, creating a lively garden scene.
Dating to the late 19th or early 20th century, the bottle reflects the Ottoman revival of historic Iznik ceramic traditions, likely produced in Kutahya. The slender form and richly painted decoration make it an eye-catching decorative piece.
It displays beautifully on a shelf, console or within a collection of antique ceramics.
