Pair of vintage Persian miniature paintings in authentic khatam frames and under glass. The paintings were hand painted on papier-mâché and coated with a fine plaster or chalk ground and then polished to create a smooth, ivory-like surface. This lacquer finish is what gives the paintings a slightly glossy, protective layer. This protective layer makes the colors more durable and resistant to damage, which explains their excellent state of preservation.

The two hand-painted scenes are a classic example of traditional Iranian art. One painting depicts a dynamic hunting scene, while the other shows a peaceful gathering of figures. Both paintings are double matted with brightly colored hand-painted papers.

The frames are absolutely exquisite. Made using the ancient art of khatam, they feature intricate geometric patterns created by thousands of tiny, hand-inlaid pieces of wood, bone, and brass. The precise craftsmanship makes the frames as significant as the paintings themselves.

This matched set is in excellent vintage condition. It's a perfect addition for collectors or anyone looking for a unique piece of Middle Eastern art.

I was impressed with the beautiful quality of my hooked poinsettia throw pillows. They look stylish and lavish on my sofas . The service in getting them before Christmas was remarkable. I had tried another business but to no avail. I am a very happy customer of House of Andaloo.
