Wall Tile with Lotus Blossom, c. 1300–50, Iran, probably Sultanabad, Ilkhanid period (1256–1353). Fritware with molded and underglaze-painted design, 20 x 20 cm. The Cleveland Museum of Art, Gift of the John Huntington Art and Polytechnic Trust 1915.645.

 

Some of the design relief has been molded as well as being built up in the white slip.

One popular method of covering large wall sections with ceramic decoration was to combine star-shaped tiles with cross-shaped tiles.
