The slivers are cut to under half a millimetre and, once glued, the surface is sanded and polished in several passes. The شش‌ضلعی کوچک geometry rearranges itself as you walk around the object. The قهوه‌ای و صدفی tones are entirely natural — no synthetic dye touches the wood. At ۱۰ × ۱۰ سانتی‌متر هر عدد, it is light enough to handle and move safely.

The story

نرگس شریفی learned khatam in the family workshop as a child, and this piece comes from his own archive of drawings. To restore missing stars of an old object he has spent weeks researching museum drawings. His workshop took root in اصفهان, where the smell of jujube wood and the fret-saw define the neighbourhood. The piece took ۱۸ working days, with every gluing and polishing stage logged. Each object is signed with a coloured sliver set into a corner.
Avoid extremely dry or damp rooms; humidity swings make the woods move. Never soak the surface — water seeps between the glued layers. Polish khatam with alcohol-free liquid polish and a soft cloth.

A thoroughly satisfying purchase

The weaving quality is outstanding — exactly as it appears in the photographs. The packaging was flawless too.
