The inscriptions, unusually, have half the complete text of the throne verse from the Qur'an, starting with the right hand band, then, after a gap in the text, continuing down the left hand and finishing in the small lower inscription.
The slightly weak drawing of this tile, together with the poor firing in places of the lustre, indicate that this was made after the period of peak production in Kashan, although the design relates very clearly to it.
The design and the gap in the text make it clear that this was the lower part of a two-tile panel, the upper of which would have completed the composition.
