AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

The plate shown is a decorative metal object, typically made of brass or copper, featuring distinctive characteristics of Indo-Islamic or Middle Eastern craftsmanship. The outer edge is marked by a wide perforated band with floral or botanical motifs, a technique known as jali or pierced work. In the center of the plate, there is a finely engraved and repoussé rosette. Often, in items of this type from regions such as Egypt, these engravings include Arabic calligraphy or sacred verses. The coloration suggests the use of mixed metals (brass and copper), worked by hand through repoussé and chasing techniques. These plates are usually intended for wall display or as ornamental trays. They are also identified as donor or parade plates. The photos are an integral part of the description. I guarantee proper packing for shipping with tracking and timely delivery.
