Mid 20th century, Rajasthan India.
Meenakari is a traditional art form that involves the intricate decoration of metal with enamel, producing stunning designs used in jewelry, decorative items, home decor, dining sets, and more. Originating in Persia, Meenakari was introduced to India in the 16th century during the reign of Mughal Emperor Shah Jahan. A court member brought this exquisite craft to the royal artisans, who initially adorned palace walls, ceilings, and doors with it. At the behest of the emperor’s wife, artisans soon began using Meenakari to craft exquisite jewelry.
Raja Man Singh of Amber is credited with bringing the Mughal art of Meenakari to India by inviting skilled artisans from Lahore to his court.
Today, Jaipur stands as a vibrant hub for Meenakari, continuing to preserve and celebrate this heritage. Other cities like Delhi, Punjab, Lucknow, Udaipur, Pratapgarh, and Varanasi, along with Rajasthan and Gujarat, are also renowned for their mastery of this art form.
The term ‘Meenakari’ is derived from the Persian word Minoo, meaning "heaven," and the ornamental use of this art form often reflects the elegance and beauty of Persian artistry.

Antique Arabesque Steel Plate with Gold and Silver Inlay
Located in London, GB
Antique Arabesque steel plate with gold and silver inlay.
Continental, 19th century
Dimensions: Height 2cm, diameter 32.5cm
Beautifully crafted from steel with gold and silver damascening, this fine 19th century plate is profusely decorated with scrolling arabesque detailing. Around the rim of the plate, scrolling foliate vines and flowers are interspersed with four grotesque masks. The centre is similarly decorated, with intertwining scrolls, acanthus leaves, dolphin heads, and swans.
There are also two coats of arms to the centre, which feature crowns and gold bows above. On one of the shields, the top half features a bird with its wings spread wide, with a church building to the bottom half. The other has an angel figure to the left and a double headed eagle to the right. The joining of two coats of arms in this manner often symbolizes the joining of two noble families in marriage, so the present plate could have been produced in celebration of a noble wedding.
This manner of decoration is similar to that of Spanish metalworker Plácido Zuloaga...
