This anthropomorphic vase of a Moor man is entirely handmade of ceramic handpainted in a traditional matte black glaze. The beauty of this piece is revealed in the ornate decorative details in the stately headdress, crown, and luscious fruit-filled hair and the captivating gaze, highlighted by a bold panel of gold foil that reveals the striking eyes. The gold foid stands out against the matte black finish for enthralling visual contrast.
