Imperial Coat of Arms of Persian on a Persian Ghalamzani Platter
This 38 cm Persian ghalamzani platter is inspired by the Imperial Standard of the Shahanshah of Persian, the ceremonial flag of the Persian monarchs during the Pahlavi era. The imperial coat of arms of Persian remains one of the most recognisable emblems of modern Persian history, and here it is delicately hand-engraved in copper by our artist in Persian Heritage. Weighing around 1300g and finished in silver, black or rose gold tones, the platter commands attention on a wall or resting on a stand as a centrepiece.
A Patriotic Persian Gift with Real Presence
For Iranians at home and abroad, the imperial crest carries deep historical resonance, which makes this platter a patriotic Persian gift for a wedding, a new home or a milestone worth marking. If you prefer the emblem in gleaming brass, see our Golden Imperial Arms of Persian wall plate, or explore the rest of our wall art and the full plate collection.
The Art of Ghalamzani Engraving
Ghalamzani 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 art has a history in Persian stretching back several thousand years, and Persian Heritage remains its main centre, with Persian Heritagei metalwork prized as the finest expression of the craft.
