This paper presents a study of a representative selection of lustre ceramics dating from the last quarter of
the 10th century AD to the second half of the 13th century AD from Egypt, Syria and Iran. The study
concentrates on the structure and chemistry of the lustre itself over the historical period considered and
has found a number of significant similarities between the production centres studied. Previous work on
the reproduction of lustre under laboratory-controlled conditions allows the archaeological data to be
related to the historical technological aspects of lustre production. The results obtained, although restricted
to the limited number of samples studied, have demonstrated the occurrence of significant
differences and similarities between lustre productions during this period. The possible reasons for these
changes are discussed.^^^^
