The irregularity is deliberate: a grid would have read as decoration, while a scatter reads as night sky.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eMade by hand in Turkey\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe form follows the ceremonial caftans worn at the Ottoman court in the 17th and 18th centuries. Colour goes on beneath the glaze, gold gilding over it, so the surface stays glossy and the line stays sharp. Each star is placed by hand, so no two pieces scatter the same way.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSize and details\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFramed size:\u003c\/strong\u003e 14.17 × 12.20 in (36 × 31 cm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/strong\u003e Hand-painted ceramic, underglaze colour, gold gilding\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMade in:\u003c\/strong\u003e Turkey\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHanging:\u003c\/strong\u003e Arrives framed and ready to hang\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhere it works\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eRed ceramic wall art is the piece you hang where you want the eye to land — a landing, an alcove, the wall facing a doorway.
