Traditional art of different periods in Iran history, particularly after the emergence of Islam, has been well reflective of the religious views of the time. This is also true about metalworking, which bloomed during Safavid era. The use of pictograph engravings, which was especially seen after Islam due to the emphasis of this religion on the ability to read and write, is evident in Safavid metalworkings, not only as a decoration, but also as a tool in conveying the two important issues of traditional identity and Shi'a religion. The metalworking of this period is a collaboration of the old traditions of this art and the skills of the present metalworkers of the time. As a result of Shi'ite kings and people, we see the holy names of Allah, Koranic verses, the holy names of Imams (esp. Hazrat Ali (PBUH)), great blessings upon the 14 Innocents (PBUT), as well as the name of the customer, the name of the artist, the name of the engraver and the calligrapher, the date of the work, some Persian and Arabic poems, etc. engraved on the vessels. This also should be noted that the content of the pictographs was always in strong accordance with the function of the vessel. The engraved pictographs of 8 vessels with 8 different functions, available at Victoria and Albert Museums (London), have been investigated in the present study. The reason why this subject was chosen as the subject of this paper was to identify the decorative elements and the contents of these engravings as well as the influence of religious views of Safavid era on the objects.
