Description

A 19th-century Ottoman Kutahya glazed pottery tile depicting the Kaaba within the Grand Mosque of Mecca. This intricately hand-painted tile captures the architectural and spiritual essence of Islam’s holiest site, framed by vivid blue, green, and red glazes. The central image features the Kaaba surrounded by colonnades, minarets, and domed structures, all meticulously rendered in a stylised, geometric style.
