The Red Shelf243 viewsIn contrast to the dominant blue, this shelf featured red wares.
|
|

Vases, Bowls and Jars263 viewsAll intricately decorated with various designs.
|
|

Urn224 viewsThe shop's inventory was divided between nautical, abstract, floral and terrestrial designs, with abstract motifs probably the most common.
|
|

Elegant Vase243 viewsAn intricate abstract design matching the urn in the previous picture.
|
|

Decanter with Daisies271 viewsComplemented by the painting on the wall behind it - obviously they were hoping to sell the two as a pair.
|
|

Turkish Coffeepot185 viewsComplex shape, decorated with a simple but effective floral motif.
|
|

Hunting Scene233 viewsThis finely painted jug featured Turkish noblemen on horseback pursuing various wild animals.
|
|

Rhapsody in Blue240 viewsAlthough other colors were not lacking, blue seemed to be the dominant color in this shop's inventory.
|
|

Tile Painting276 viewsI don't know what historical scene or event this picture is intended to depict - maybe a slave market - but it was uncharacteristically risque for this shop.
|
|

Chuck and Elouise Mattox213 viewsBrowsing the wares in the pottery shop.
|
|

Calligraphy245 viewsI greatly enjoy the elegant stylized Arabic script decorating these plates, although for all I know it may say something like "Death to Infidels" or "You are the illegitimate offspring of an unholy union between a donkey and a camel."
|
|

Plate Close-up234 viewsOf the three plates on this shelf, my favorite combined a floral design with what appears to be a mishmash of Arabic script and Greek letters.
