Marble box with Tazhib motifs

Tazhib; The Art Rooted in Ancient Persia

Dating back to the Sassanian era, Tazhib has long been used to enhance and beautify precious manuscripts, including poetry collections and the Holy Quran

Today, some of Iran’s most accomplished artists have taken this art beyond the pages of manuscripts and onto marble, creating works that are remarkable for their elegance, craftsmanship, and beauty

Halakari is among the most delicate and intricate techniques within the art of Tazhib. In creating these patterns, the artist combines artistic intuition with the principles of geometry and mathematics to produce unique, visually captivating designs

About Charva Marble Artworks

All Charva marble pieces are crafted from premium 3 mm sheets of genuine marble

The artwork featured on each piece is hand-painted using a variety of techniques, including watercolor, calligraphy, miniature painting, and more. Once completed, five layers of polyester coating are carefully applied to ensure the durability and longevity of the designs in a wide range of environments and climates

Because every marble slab possesses its own natural veining and all artwork is created entirely by hand, no two pieces are ever exactly alike. Each creation is truly one of a kind. To further enhance its authenticity and long-term value, every piece bears the artist’s signature beneath the artwork
