Ca. 17th-19th century AD. A circular plate of remarkable beauty and sophistication. The plate is adorned with an intricate design of calligraphic script and arabesque patterns, expertly executed with precision and finesse. The upper face of the plate is covered in a dazzling display of artistic mastery, capturing the beauty and complexity of Islamic art. Such calligraphy plates were highly valued in Islamic culture, where the written word held a profound spiritual significance. The use of calligraphic script was a common feature of Islamic art, and these plates were often commissioned by wealthy patrons to display in their homes, or gifted to religious institutions as a form of religious devotion. The intricate patterns and designs were believed to offer a sense of tranquility and contemplation, and were often used as a meditative tool for those seeking to deepen their spiritual connection.Size: L:250mm / W:250mm ; 235gProvenance: From the collection of a London gentleman; formerly in a collection of A.
