History
This piece draws from the refined geometry and disciplined craftsmanship of the Mamluk era, a period of cultural and artistic brilliance spanning the 13th to 16th centuries. Centred in Cairo and Damascus, Mamluk design is celebrated for its complex interlacing patterns, angular symmetry, and mathematical elegance. These forms were created not only to adorn but to reflect a deeper sense of structure and meaning.
Design
The pattern features a layered composition of star forms and intersecting lines, capturing the clarity and balance found in manuscripts, architecture, and carved surfaces from the period. Its structured yet dynamic arrangement offers a quiet tribute to a golden age of art and learning.
Crafting & Finishing
Digitally modelled for precision and crafted with premium wood PLA, each piece is carefully shaped and hand-finished to sharpen its geometry and reveal subtle depth. Multiple protective coatings are applied to enhance contrast, preserve texture, and ensure durability with a smooth, matte finish.
