I have one almost identical, but hexagon shape. I bought it in Jordan, but I think they are made in Egypt. Just for your info! I also have end tables and platters. Amazing work.

@henryhoney Hi! Yes, absolutely amazing! Can you imagine making these! I’d go blind!😆 They are so intricate.

@sophieseashells I would say this is marquetry, not inlay. More cost effective, and just as beautiful. I love my end tables. Bought in Jordan. Used to see them sold at the international Centre at the Toronto CNE. Nicer when one has been to the place. Petra was incredible.

@henryhoney Your end tables must look amazing!😍

@sophieseashells they do! I have three of one and two of another. Everything about them is ornate, including their shapely legs! Shapelier than mine!
