Persian Eslimi Plate in Traditional Minakari Enamel
Rooted in centuries of Persian craftsmanship, this Persian eslimi plate is a refined expression of traditional minakari artistry. The hand painted copper plate carries flowing eslimi floral and ivy motifs on a luminous turquoise background, the kind of work collectors of authentic Persian Minakari look for. Introduced by Persis Collection, it is more than decor: it is a story told through enamel and fire.
Hand Painted Copper Enamel Craftsmanship
Skilled artisans paint each plate by hand using time honoured techniques of Persian enamel art. The copper base is carefully prepared to hold layers of vivid enamel colour, giving a smooth, radiant surface with remarkable depth. Because the plate is fully handmade, subtle variations in colour and brushwork mark its authenticity and artisanal value; this is arabesque copper art in the literal sense, drawn stroke by stroke.
The Eslimi Pattern with Turquoise Elegance
The eslimi pattern is the Persian ancestor of what the West calls the arabesque: scrolling ivy and stylised Islamic flowers that symbolise harmony and continuity. The turquoise background, a signature of traditional Persian enamel plates, sets off the intricate detailing while keeping the whole calm and luxurious. Displayed on its included stand or used as a serving piece, it settles gracefully into any interior.
Decorative and Functional Persian Enamel Art
With a generous 30 cm diameter, the plate serves beautifully as wall art, tabletop decor or a cultural accent in refined spaces. Gentle hand washing with mild detergent preserves the delicate enamel painting.
