The decorative use of calligraphy was the most distinctive elements in Islamic art. On domestic pottery from the 9th and 10th centuries, the inscriptions are usually blessings. Here, we have used the technique of Brass inlay to recreate the design from an antique pottery piece. The assymetrical brass lags contrast beautifully with the circular geometry of the table.
