Lalejin pottery vs Blue-and-white ceramics

سفال لالجین · سفالینه آبی و سفید

Lalejin pottery: A regional pottery tradition centred on the town of Lalejin near Hamadan, producing thrown and press-moulded glazed and unglazed earthenware, from utilitarian storage vessels to decorative tableware, in a large number of household workshops. Blue-and-white ceramics: Stonepaste wares painted in cobalt blue under a clear glaze, produced in Iran with strong dialogue with Chinese porcelain, especially in the Timurid and Safavid periods.
