Featured Persian tile ?

Here's a tile I just found.It's 6 7/8" square,5/8" thick w/ an uneven ('lumpy') face.Appears frm Google to be a Persian Iznik Qajar Style Ceramic Pottery Tile.

 

Sounds good to me.

 

Iznik is Turkish. Imo it is an Iznik tile, so Turkish, and it looks to be from the late Ottoman period.

The Qajar dynasty was Persian, and the Ottoman empire and Persia were neighbours. There has always been Persian influence in Ottoman arts, sometimes vice versa as well.

 

With the inclusion of the deer, I would lean more toward Persian. Turkish tiles tend to be strictly floral and/or geometric.

 

Although Iznik is mainly floral, there are Iznik ceramics with deer.

 

Thanks for your help.My partner loves tiles and all I generally see are repros of Arts & Crafts/Nouveau pieces-new stuff.

 

Well, I've learned my something new -- always conflated Iznik with Persian, so now I'll think Turkish!

 

I agree Kent-the amount of things I've learned here are are endless.
PS-Love to find some antique Iznik pottery,this'd work !-
