Footnotes: Provenance: Robert Rousset, Paris (1901-1981) Jean-Pierre Rousset, Paris (1936-2021) The present dish is a particularly fine example of its type with its beautiful jade-like glaze and precise fluted cavetto and barbed-rim. See a related Longquan celadon-glazed barbed rim dish, 14th century, illustrated by R.Krahl and J.Ayers, Chinese Ceramics in the Topkapi Saray Museum Istanbul , vol.I, London, 1986, no.167. The numerous examples of Longquan celadon-glazed dishes in Istanbul and also those from the Ardebil shrine in Iran, and now in the Archaeological Museum, Tehran, demonstrates their popularity in the Middle East due to their glaze, robustness and suitability for communal feasting.
