The Sillanwali Handicrafts 10-inch Naqshi Calligraphy Plate is a piece of traditional Pakistani naqshi art: a wooden plate finished in lacquer with calligraphy and border patterns scratched back by hand in Sillanwali, Sargodha, Pakistan. It comes with its own display stand and is available in five designs. It costs PKR 3,000, is ready to ship, and is paid in cash on delivery anywhere in Pakistan.
A piece of traditional Pakistani naqshi art for a shelf, a mantel or a study table. The 10-inch plate is turned from wood and finished in naqshi lacquer — coloured lac is layered onto the spinning plate, then the calligraphy and the border patterns are scratched back by hand in our Sillanwali workshop, so the lettering shows in fine lines of colour. It comes with its own display stand, so it stands upright on any flat surface. It is available in five designs, each lettered and patterned by hand — choose the one you want from the photographs. A meaningful gift for a new home, for Ramadan and Eid, for a wedding, or for anyone who treasures Islamic calligraphy. Ready to ship, with cash on delivery anywhere in Pakistan. Because every plate is lacquered and scratched by hand, the colours and lettering vary a little from the photographs.
Every piece is made by hand, so the wood grain, carving and colour vary a little from the photo. That variation is normal and is what makes each one its own.

- Keep painted and lacquered surfaces out of direct sun and away from heat so the colours stay true.
- A light food-safe mineral oil once or twice a year keeps plain serving pieces from drying out.
