Shawl
Object type: shawl
Date: 1860 – 1869
Materials: cotton, wool
Culture: scottish

This is a particularly stunning design and color combination presented by the Scottish textile mills of the 19th century. The bi-color field is thematic while the overall pattern is very intricate and vibrant. The pattern follows the traditional Indian jamawar format with an inner border, outer border and large cone patterns at each end. The shawl held a place as a high fashion accessory for a relatively large period between the end of the 18th century to the 1870s. These accessories were originally adopted by men with exposure to India and Persia through the Trading Companies. The changing fashions near the end of the 18th century brought a renewed interest in Indian and Persian shawls as a form of warmth over the thin muslins of fashionable Empire silhouette dresses. The shawls came in many designs which generally incorporated the boteh form. This form, which is mostly known as the paisley now, is an ancient Persian design based upon the tree of life and inspired by buds, cones and palm fronds. These objects were hand woven and extremely costly which inspired European manufacturers to attempt to produce cheaper copies for the masses. The primary center for machine woven reproduction Indian shawls became Paisley, Scotland. The shawls from this location were so prominent on the market that the style and boteh form of the shawls has been generally referred to as paisleys since. The invention of the Jacquard loom in 1801 increased productivity and reduced costs even further after its first use in Paisley in the 1820s. Other designs of shawls were also produced at this time, albeit they never reached the popularity of the Indian, Persian and Paisley shawls. In the 1870s the shawl lost popularity due to its immense size and the reducing expanse of skirts to help support them. Many of the original Indian and Persian shawls had been retained as heirlooms through generations due to their cost while cheaper reproductions were sometimes altered into a more fashionable bustle silhouette mantle.

Spiral Key
Object type: key
Date: 1501 – 1533
Materials: iron
Culture: german

The decoration of Gothic iron locks and keys was often elaborate and of the highest standard of workmanship. The motifs were frequently drawn from Gothic architecture, reproducing on a miniature scale complicated tracery patterns and even tiny statuettes. A number of these tiny locks were compound, with some of the mechanisms concealed from view, and required two or even three keys used in sequence to open them. It has been suggested that the greatly expanded use of locks on doors, or coffrets and other types of storage chests was a result of the increasing urbanization of life and the new emphasis on material wealth and private ownership which developed in the late Middle Ages.

Bowl
Object type: bowl, faience
Date: 200 – 150
Materials: faience
Location: egypt
Subjects: flowers

The relief decoration of this shallow bowl is enhanced by the contrast between its primary light turquoise color and the dark blue used in the interstices and background. On the exterior, five petals of the nelumbo lotus interspersed with the tips of inner lotus petals and ribbed leaves of an unknown plant surround the base like a flower. Inside, three rings of nelumbo petals and ribbed leaves enclose the central rosette; a wave-crest pattern and plain band surround the whole. Bowls were part of the widespread faience production in Hellenistic and Imperial Roman times. Examples have been found in Egypt and around the Mediterranean, from Israel in the east to southern Italy in the west. Dual-color relief of varying height is a standard feature of this ware, as is the mixture of Egyptian and Greek motifs. Elements imitating metal vessels are noticeable in some instances. Most bowls of the ware are hemispherical and bear decoration exclusively on the exterior. The Museum's bowl shares its shallow shape, recessed ring base, and interior with only a few other vessels, all of which seem to come from Egypt. Close parallels were excavated in the cemeteries around Alexandria. It is therefore probable that this bowl was made in a faience workshop in that city. Other types of the ware are thought to have been manufactured at Memphis. Terracotta parallels for the shape suggest a date in the first half of the second century B.C. for the Museum's bowl. The faience material, motifs, and cemetery provenance of the piece found at Alexandria indicate that the vessels were made to serve either funerary or ritual purposes, or both. Lotus flowers, as well as the figure of a frog that sits on the rim of yet another similar bowl, are age-old symbols of creation, life, and resurrection. They are more than mere embellishment on vessels that could have been used as funerary equipment or in the cults of deities such as Serapis and Isis.

Faience, or tin-glazed and enameled earthenware, first emerged in France during the sixteenth century, reaching widespread usage among elite patrons during the seventeenth and early eighteenth centuries, prior to the establishment of soft-paste porcelain factories. Although characterized as more provincial in style than porcelain, French faience was used at the court of Louis XIV as part of elaborate meals and displays, with large-scale vessels incorporated into the Baroque garden designs of Versailles. Earlier examples of French faience attest to the strong influence of maiolica artists from Italy. Later works demonstrate the ways in which cities such as Nevers, Rouen, Lyon, Moustiers, and Marseille developed innovative vessel shapes and decorative motifs prized among collectors throughout Europe. While faience can be created from a wide mixture of clays, it is foremost distinguished by the milky opaque white color achieved by the addition of tin oxide to the glaze. French faience is typically divided into two types. Grand feu (high fire) describes pieces that have been decorated with glaze and metallic oxides before being fired a single time at a high temperature of around 1650°F (900°C). Petit feu (low-fire) faience, developed in the second half of the eighteenth century, refers to a process whereby the clay body is fired before being glazed and decorated with metallic oxides and then fired again at a lower temperature; pieces can also go through a third firing. Grand feu pieces have a more limited color palette that consists of blue, yellow, brown-purple, and green. By contrast, the lower firing temperature of petit feu faience enabled both greater precision in painting techniques and variety in the range of colors.

In eighteenth-century Europe, Paris led the production of high-quality luxury goods. Parisian goldsmiths made a wide range of small, personal articles such as snuffboxes; étuis to hold sealing wax, tweezers, or utensils for sewing; souvenirs, which contained thin ivory tablets for note taking; and shuttles for knotting lace. Gold snuffboxes and boxes decorated with portrait miniatures were prized and frequently given as royal gifts, often to ambassadors or members of the court in lieu of cash payments for their services. Coveted and admired, these boxes were produced from a variety of materials. The best were skillfully made of gold and embellished with diamonds, enameled decoration, lacquer, and other luxurious materials. By the middle of the century, the taking of snuff had become an entrenched social ritual, and the snuffbox, too, had become an important social prop. Snuffboxes were considered highly fashionable accessories, with some merchants advertising new boxes with each change of season. The popularity of snuffboxes extended to all levels of society, and for those who could not afford gold, boxes were produced in less expensive materials such as silver, tortoiseshell, porcelain, or domestically produced lacquer.
Cross-Shaped Tile
Object type: tile
Materials: stonepaste
Techniques: gilding, overglaze, painting
Location: iran
Subjects: cross

This cross-shaped tile was decorated using a technique called lajvardina, a term that reference lapis lazuli, a deep blue colored stone containing gold particles. After an initial firing to establish the dark blue and turquoise background, the tile underwent a second firing to set the overglazed details and the carefully cut and placed specks of gold leaf that create a glimmering surface. A nearly symmetrical vine pattern, once covered in gold leaf, is surrounded by gold and black decoration that occupies the background of this tile, which would have been an element in a star-and-cross panel adorning the walls of an Ilkhanid palace, mosque, or mausoleum.
