Carved out of solid walnut and constructed using ancient Mother of Pearl inlaying techniques. The carvings are a form of the ancient art of Naqsh (نقش), a complex geometric art form that involves engraving intricate patters onto hard surfaces. This unique design continues to be an art form deeply rooted in Damascene culture Less than 3 pieces a year leave our workshops, not for lack of demand, but because of substantial amount of time that must be put into each piece.  Dimensions: Height 80 cm / 32 inches Width 80 cm / 32 inches Depth 45 cm / 18 inches
