Peacock Pattern with Lattice Marble Inlay Pot

This marble pot is a beautiful representation of the old, elegant art of marble inlay work, also known as Parchin Kari. The marble inlay was created by lapidaries cutting semiprecious stones to precisely match floral motifs outlined on the surface of the marble, and pressing them into it. The pot has been carved out from a single piece of marble without any joints. With light from the candles reflected as an effulgent glow by the white marble, this decorative blends beauty and utility perfectly.
