Sorry, this item has sold.

The Al-Hakim mosque, also known as the al-Anwar mosque, was built in Fatimid Cairo at the end of the tenth century. At the time, it was one of the largest mosques in the world. The mosque suffered the winds of time and entered a dilapidated state in the early modern era. Napolean's army turned this once great Fatimid structure into a stable, and overtime, its remaining structures began to be replaced. However, since the mosque had a significance to the Dawoodi Bohra community of India, they chose to renovate and rebuild it, to resemble its former glorious state. There was a lot of work to be undertaken and this community rebuilt the mosque.

This wooden engraved work of art, based on the architectural features of an arabesque laced window grille from this historic mosque, is a tribute to the al-Anwar’s history and heritage. This one-of-a-kind rustic-look artwork mixes medieval and modern in a colorful way.

It's a unique modern addition to any space in your home or office.

This piece is so absolutely beautiful. It shipped quickly, and seeing it in real life, it was even more beautiful than in the pictures. I will be back to this shop the next time I have wall space for something new.
