About the Item

17th century Hispano-Moresque lusterware bowl or charger with a central 'Pardelot' bird. This large dish is an example of the production of one of the most important ceramic centres in the Iberian Peninsula, namely Manises. Located in the region of Valencia, it saw its peak of success and activity between the mid-14th and mid-16th centuries, producing Gothic ceramics and particularly noted for its lustreware. This piece, however, comes from a later period when styles and techniques had changed. During this time, there was a shift in taste and market demand, leading to different approaches in production. The finishes are rougher, with glazes that are less white and shiny. The lustre technique became less complex, often with a copper-like appearance due to the use of different materials. Despite these changes, new decorative motifs appeared, such as the “pardelot” bird seen here, surrounded by stylized foliate elements. The bird has a small head, curved beak, and an undulating body filled with details like stalks or plumage. This plate offers insight into the evolution of Manises ceramics, reflecting both its historical significance and the artistic adaptations over time. It’s a meaningful piece for those interested in the history of Iberian pottery. In good condition; moderate wear
