Artisan platter with almond design

Artisan platter with almond design featuring traditional epigraphic ornament. A graceful blend of 10th century Samarkand ceramic traditions and modern aesthetics, this large platter symbolises love and harmony within the family. The central almond motif represents the feminine, while the sword stands for the masculine energy. The central horizontal ornament is derived from the Arabic word ‘ishk’ – ‘Love’. Made of top-quality red clay with natural engobes and the famous ishkor glaze, this piece is a true work of art.
