I'm fully agree with you
one day, for some one, the translation of the Koftgari on a beautiful tray,
gave a date, and think remember me, a Sultan name inside a thugra

HI Dom,
Despite their comparative youth

Your astrolabes are beautiful items.
Yes indeed, the Syrian tray!
Much thicker inlay of course. Much of it made by laying thick wires side by side to create a solid.
Interesting technique!
Best
