  • Islamic Glass Trade ca.16th-19th Century Bead #14
  • Measures approx. 24mm x 22mm
  • Material: Beautifully hand wound and folded glass creating an almost "textile/ fallen robe" effect.
  • The trade of glass beads has long been assumed to have been under Islamic dominance during the early centuries following the Arab conquest of the Middle East, judged by the prevalence of Islamic beads in the archaeological contexts from Viking Scandinavia to medieval Morocco.
  • This is the 'Golden Age' of Islamic glassmaking, despite the fractious nature of the Islamic World of that time. The glass-producing regions of Syria and Egypt continued their industries. It is for the materials excavated and produced at sites such as Samsat in southern Turkey, Aleppo and Damascus in Syria, Hebron in the Levant, and Cairo that this period is referred to as the 'Golden Age' of Islamic glass.
  • The Middle Islamic Period is characterized by the perfection of various polychrome decorative traditions, the most important of which are marvering,
  • enamelling, and gilding.
  • Marvering involves applying a continuous trail of opaque glass (in various colors such as white, red, yellow, or pale blue) around the body of a glass object. This trail may then be manipulated by pulling it, creating a characteristic 'wavy' pattern. The object was then rolled on a marver (a stone or iron slab) to work the trail into the glass vessel itself.
  • Origin is Persia via Egypt

    beautiful
    Color: XY010-Silver
    Purchased for granddaughter to keep in her bathroom. She normally removes jewelry and leaves on sink. A $40 bracelet was lost into the waste basket so this will prevent that. Came flat so I gently bent the branches and it is now a 3 dimensional tree . Beautiful.

    Well crafted and easy to assemble, decorative and useful piece.
    Color: Bronze
    This ring/jewelry holder is a little bigger than I expected it to be, and definitely is more suitable to a nightstand or dresser than on a bathroom vanity. That being said, the construction is very sturdy and it can easily hold a lot of jewelry. This is a great gift for a jewelry collector who already has a ton of jewelry and needs an innovative way to store and display it. There are a ton of branches on the tree, and each can easily fit 4-7 rings or necklaces.

    Quick shipment, beautiful but slightly bent.
    Color: Black
    It's a beautiful piece, it was delivered sooner than expected which it is a plus the only thing I noticed after opening package, the top of the stand was slightly bent, I don't want to try to fix it because I'm afraid it may break. Overall it is very stable beautiful jewelry stand. Not too big and not too small. Perfect size.
