Notes
The piece is a deep plate that is divided from the inside by white and black lines into eight sections: four large and the other small. Each of the four large parts is filled with the shape of a large, curved tree that ends in an arch at the top. The tree's trunk is surrounded by leaves on both ends, from which emerge delicate twigs and branches, others filled with repetitive, illegible words written in cursive script. All of these decorative elements on the glazed plate are characteristic of the decorative style of the Mamluk period.
