このコンテンツについて

In this late-night deep dive, we explore how Abbasid potters in 9th-century Baghdad and Basra invented lusterware — pottery that gleams like real gold and silver through secret kiln alchemy.

We cover:

  • The metallic magic of reduction firing and nanoparticles
  • Influences from Sassanian silver and Byzantine enamels
  • Why Harun al-Rashid gifted these to Charlemagne
  • Connections from the House of Wisdom to modern tech coatings

Part of a series on Islamic ceramics and East-West exchange.
