Takfeet of Luminant Metals at the Palaces of Mamluk Cairo - Part One: The Candlesticks presents a comprehensive study of the exquisite inlaid candlesticks that lit the palaces of the Mamluk rulers in Cairo. More than functional objects, these masterpieces of takfeet - the art of inlaying brass with silver and gold - represent centuries of artistic excellence, cultural identity, and technological achievement within Islamic civilization.
The Mamluk period (1250-1517 CE) witnessed remarkable achievements in architecture, metalwork, calligraphy, and ornamental design. Among its most celebrated creations are the intricately crafted candlesticks that combined practical function with exceptional beauty. Decorated with elegant Arabic inscriptions, geometric motifs, floral arabesques, and precious-metal inlays, they stand as enduring symbols of Islamic artistic heritage.
This richly illustrated volume documents the candlesticks in full colour across 584 pages:
An essential reference for collectors, scholars, and institutions devoted to Islamic art. Part One of the series من روائع الفن الإسلامي. Arabic text throughout.
