The use of predominantly blue floral motifs in the decoration of terracotta vessels reached its peak during the reigns of Amenhotep III and Akhenaten. The principal component of the blue pigment that was applied to ceramic vessels before firing was cobalt; the blue used on wood and stone was the synthetic material commonly called Egyptian blue. Numerous examples of ceramics decorated in this style were excavated by the Museum in the palace of Amenhotep III at Malkata, in Thebes (for example 11.215.460).Free picture Blue-painted Storage jar integrated with the OffiDocs web apps
