The panel has been constructed from individual hand turned elements known as mashrabyah. Mashrabyah (or wood turning) is a craft used in Egypt to make projecting windows and items such as screens. This wooden panel is from Cairo in Egypt and was probably made in the 18th century, when Egypt was under Ottoman rule. It would have been used within a domestic space as a built in cupboard door. This wooden panel is part of a highly comprehensive collection of Islamic woodwork from Egypt, collected by the South Kensington Museum (later the Victoria and Albert Museum) between 1869 and 1884.
