Nasrid glazed ceramic tiling panel with geometric decoration, from a plinth in the Alhambra.

It corresponds to part of a geometric sebka design, or rhombus network, composed of four black pieces and five white pieces - one of the latter very lost. All the pieces have the same shape, with a mixtilinear profile, that is, with straight and curved edges. This shape resembles a stylized flower with a cut stem at the bottom, a quadrangular calyx open at the top in a kind of two symmetrical leaves and, to top it off, a central almond-shaped fruit. Dating 1232-1492 Cultural Context/Nasrid Style Use/function Plinth Place of Origin La Alhambra (Granada (m), Vega de Granada (region)
