Product Features
This product may contain fine glaze cracks that are visible to the eye but cannot be felt by touch. This natural characteristic, which comes from the historical structure of Iznik ceramics, is also seen in the tiles of Selimiye Mosque and is not a defect. Traditionally known as “Shahdar,” these cracks are part of the natural life process of the ceramics and add authentic value to the piece.
