Bottle

Not on view

The prominent thuluth inscription is addressed to an anonymous sultan who, according to standard Mamluk formulas, was "the King, the Learned, the Just." The absence of the sultan's name, however, suggests that this bottle was used for the general market rather than following a specific commission.
