Marble Inlay Decorative Plate with Blue Floral Motifs, "Floral Imagination"
Capturing the beauty of the artisan's imagination, this octagonal decorative plate features intricate floral motifs. In the style of decorations found at the famous Taj Mahal, the blue floral motifs are diligently carved by hand into marble, inlaid with around 700 pieces of colorful resin. Imran designs this beautiful plate, displayed on a mango wood stand.
Please note that once carved, marble may progressively change its original hue from pristine white to ivory.

"Own a piece of the Taj Mahal in your home"
Imran hails fro the family of artisans that built the Taj Mahal. He practices the art of jeweled stone inlay on marble something that came to India from Persia. His work is absolutely stunning and I own and gift many of his pieces to treasured friends all the time. What an incredible artist he is.

"Will treasure it always!"
I was thrilled to see that these beautiful pieces of art are available. I purchased my first piece during a visit to Agra in 1980. After seeing artisans work on these pieces my husband purchased one for me. It has been my most cherished possession & I am thrilled to purchase another piece. I think Ill start a collection. This new piece is simply breathtaking! Love it!
