The
earliest examples from the Islamic period in the Museum for
Islamic Art in Cairo can be dated to the ninth century, whileSyrian objects with intarsia decoration have survived from
the tenth century. These
early works are from the religious sphere, such as the panels of
preaching chairs (minhar), Koran stands {rah la),
and, more rarely, the doors of mosques, mcdreses and
saints' tombs. The technique of intarsia spread westwards from
Egypt and Syrian to Andalusia and Morocco, and eastwards to Iran
and India.Syrian and Egyptian intarsias have retained their
unmistakeable style and even today they are technically among
the best examples of this ancient craft.
