CINTAMANI IZNIK POTTERY TILE, TEKFUR PALACE, OTTOMAN, TURKEY, 17TH/18TH CENTURY
This square tile features the iconic Ottoman Cintamani motif, with wavy blue lines radiating from the canter, forming a bold X-shaped pattern. Each corner is decorated with the distinctive round Cintamani symbols in cobalt blue, accompanied by delicate cloud-like motifs and floral accents in green and red. Set against an off-white background, this tile reflects the rich decorative style typical of Iznik ceramics from the period, and it is likely from the Tekfur Palace in Istanbul.
