This bowl may reflect the presence in Samarra of bowls produced by China’s
Changsha kilns. Decorated with fluid green and brown designs that sometimes
featured Arabic characters, Changsha wares were exported by sea to Islamic
countries. A bowl from Changsha is on the middle shelf in the opposite case.
