Abstract
This paper concerns Islamic glass vessels excavated in China, especially from tombs in Inner Mongolia and Liaoning, dating from the Liao period (916-1125 A.D.). Some views concerning these vessels have been presented already after the final excavation report was published and some of the glass vessels were chemically analyzed by the Chinese Research Institute.Unfortunately an overview of these Islamic glass materials from China is rather unknown to European and American scholars. I will offer a catalogue of such materials and compare them with similar examples excavated in West Asia.
