Footed Bowl. Dimensions: H. 4 3/8 in. (11.1 cm)Diam. 6 15/16 in. (17.6 cm)Wt. 26.3 oz. (745.7 g). Date: early 13th century.This footed bowl has a rich program of inlaid silver decoration. There are epigraphic bands under the rim and around the foot, each with blessings for the bowl's owner in animated script, with a band of medallions containing the signs of the Zodiac in the middle. Each medallion is framed by a ring of pointed rays that underscore the solar symbolism of the decoration, and each sign is shown with its Planetary Lord.In Arabic, Aquarius is called al-dalw ("the water bucket") when referring to the sign of the Zodiac, and sakib al-ma ("the water pourer") when referring to the constellation. Correspondingly, illustrations of the Zodiac show Saturn, the Planetary Lord of Aquarius, raising a bucket of water from a well, whereas illustrations of the constellation, following the original Greek name, show a male figure pouring water from a vessel.

Date: 2nd-1st century B.C..The decorative scheme of this bowl, large petals separated by triangular zones of stacked ferns or pine cones, illustrates the close correspondance between faience and Megarian wares, two types of kiln fired objects ornamented with designs normally associated with silver vessels.While Megarian bowls were made in many places within the Mediterranean basin, faience seems to have been produced solely in Egypt, most likely Alexandria, its artistic and commercial center during the Hellenistic period.The broad appeal of faience bowls, therefore, is attested by their diverse geographical find-spots, such as; the Greek island of Rhodes, Asia Minor (Turkey), Palastine and, Apulia in Southern Italy.

Late Period-Ptolemaic Period Faience cups of this type are frequent in the Late Period. A recent study of faience vessels notes that examples were found in the western dump at the Sacred Animal Necropolis at Saqqara, where datable documents belong to the 5th-4th centuries B.C. The cups vary in size; examples are known that were inscribed and found in sets of 7 for the 7 sacred oils. The type may have continued to be produced during the Graeco-Roman period, but the quality of the glaze here - very thick and most often with regular craquelure in a regular manner - seems characteristic of the Late Period..
