Two Buff Ware Fragments with Animal Decoration

Two Buff Ware Fragments with Animal Decoration. Dimensions: W. 6 1/4 in. (15.9 cm)
L.  4 in. (10.2 cm). Date: 9th century.
The buff clay fabric used to make this vessel forms the background to an overall decoration of animals, including birds and horned and spotted quadrupeds. Interspersed between them are small geometric motifs. None of these features seems to carry a meaning; they were simply a design innovation of the Nishapur potters.
