Darb-i Imam Girih
A two-level girih pattern after the Darb-i Imam shrine in Isfahan (1453): a ten-fold strapwork medallion with a finer copy of the same pattern traced inside every tile, the self-similar order now known from quasicrystals. Where the large strands cross, they weave over and under in turn.
Every line is constructed exactly, then finished in flat painted pigments with a soft hand-painted texture and paper grain. It comes in one palette, Lapis & Manuscript Gold: a gold-leaf central star in lapis, peacock, shell and madder, after Safavid manuscript illumination.
One of a series of pattern prints from the great ornamental traditions, Persian, Moorish, Celtic and Japanese, all in the same finish: Alhambra Rosette, Hyperbolic Heptagrams, Celtic Knot Carpet, Asanoha, Seigaiha Waves, Parquet Deformation.

Common Questions
Your choice. Framed arrives ready to hang in a matte black wood frame (0.75 in thick) with a clear acrylic front and hanging hardware. The print fills the frame with no mat: its own paper margin around the figure does that job. Print ships unframed and fits a standard ready-made frame of the same size.
A museum-quality matte poster paper (189 g/m²) with archival inks. The matte surface keeps the painted texture and fine lines crisp without glare.
No. The gold is printed as a warm ochre with a soft painted sheen, the way gilding reads in a printed book plate. It is not foil or metallic ink.
No. Every size is rendered from the same geometry at full print resolution, and the figure spans the same share of the sheet’s width. The 24 × 36 is a taller sheet, so it has more paper above and below the figure. Pick a size above to see it to scale on a wall.
Each print is made to order (framed ones are framed by hand) and usually ships within 2–5 business days, then about 3–7 days in transit within the US. US shipping is free.
