Question

A 15th-century kiosk named after these objects was originally used as a pleasure pavilion, but was repurposed as an imperial museum in the 19th century. A technique for painting these objects, named for the fact that it uses seven main colors, is called the haft rang technique. Some of these objects (-5[1])with floral motifs in the saz style are found in the Circumcision Room. A set of five types of these objects with (-5[1])lines on them is named for its use in the creation of strapwork patterns, or girih. Many buildings by Sinan (10[1])contain fritware examples of these objects from (10[1])Iznik. (10[3])The (10[3])Sultan (10[1])Ahmed (-5[1])Mosque (-5[1])contains thousands of these (10[2])objects (10[2])whose color scheme inspired (10[1])the building’s popular (10[2])nickname, (10[1]-5[1])the Blue Mosque. (10[1])For 10 points, name these ceramic objects, (10[1])which are known as tesserae when they are used to make mosaics. ■END■ (10[5])
