About This Design
Egyptian/Syrian design from 1350-57 Coffee Mug
Although flat dishes with raised curved rims, such as this example, were uncommon in Mamluk enameled glass, the dense decoration on this plate is typical of the style of enameled glass of fourteenth century Egypt. A geometric grid created through five tangential circles, drawn in a continuous looping line, dominates the composition. Four of the circles include a complex interlacing star-like pattern, and alternate with stylised arabesque-type vegetal patterns. The colourful chromatic contrast of blue, white, and red enamels, as well as gilding emphasises the graphic quality of this complex design. Such luxurious dishes belonged to the luxurious tableware used by the ruling elite in regions between Egypt and Anatolia.————— Date: ca. 1350–1357
Geography: Attributed to Syria or Egypt
Medium: Glass; free blown, enameled and gilded; tooled on the pontil

I like to buy and review my own work to ensure you get an outstanding product and I’m happy to give the Primary Colours Beach Football Mug 5 stars because it meets my expectations completely. Pleased with it I am. Zazzle mugs are well fabricated, microwave and dishwasher safe. And this yellow red and blue panoramic wraparound motif is sealed with a durable and sparkling Orca polished gloss glaze finish. It’ll never rub off! The size and energy of two jostling figures and a burly goal keeper fit the mug's circular shape well. There's momentum in the carousel effect as the two jostling figures repeat and move right around the mug and meet a burly goal keeper. Big sharp original images precisely drawn and delicately captured in blue and red with plenty of bright yellow! An ideal gift for anyone who plays ball! A fun gift for all beachball and football fans. A pair with the Retro Grey-Grain Beachball Player Mug. Available in two sizes and several styles including Black Ringer, Travelling, and Stern. Go have a peek!
