Description

These rods are then sliced and glued onto a wooden base. • Design: The repeating geometric patterns often feature six-pointed stars and other micro-mosaic elements. Origins: While famously associated with Persian (Iranian) cities like Shiraz and Isfahan, similar styles like Sadeli were also produced in India and the Ottoman Empire. Value €104
