Islamic & Iznik Ceramic Tile Art
Shrouded in mystery, Islamic ceramic art was influenced by many sources
Roman, Early Christian art, and Byzantine styles were taken over in early Islamic art and architecture; the influence of the Sassanian art of pre-Islamic Persia was of paramount significance; Central Asian styles were brought in with various nomadic incursions; and Chinese influences had a formative effect on Islamic painting, pottery, and textiles.
De Ferranti's artisans are schooled in many styles and can handle commissions ranging from 'Islamic-Style' right through to Victorian Delft.
