Golden Brass Ghalamzani Plate with the Imperial Arms of Persian
This brass ghalamzani plate carries the imperial arms in a rich antique gold finish, delicately hand-engraved by our artist in Persian Heritage. At 30cm across and weighing around 1000g, it is a golden wall plate with genuine presence, equally at home hung on a wall or set on a display stand.
An Emblem of Persian in Antique Gold
At the heart of the design is the Lion and Sun (Persian: شیر و خورشید, shir o khorshid), long recognised as one of the main emblems of Persian. Rendered in gleaming brass, the crest becomes a proud statement of Persian identity for a living room, study or office. If you prefer the imperial crest in engraved copper at a larger scale, see our Imperial Coat of Arms of Persian ghalamzani platter, 40cm.
The Art of Ghalam Zani
Ghalam-zani is the original Persian craft of artistic metalworking: engraving, embossing, hammering, repoussé and chasing elaborate designs into copper, silver, gold and brass to form minutely detailed reliefs. The craft has a history in Persian stretching back several thousand years, and Persian Heritage remains its main centre. Discover more Persian wall art and our unique plate collection.
