Chess Piece, King.

13th–14th century; attributed to Egypt or Syria.

‘This marvered glass piece exemplifies the classic Islamic design of a king. This may originally have been in the shape of a human figure seated on a throne, but such a design was abstracted early on into this shape, with its distinctive double-humped profile. Kings of a similar form were produced in Iran perhaps as early as the 9th century.‘
