This tile shows an interesting feature in the use of black outlines. Two different tones are used, one of which is softer, paler and definitely under the glaze. The other appears to relate to the black which is used in the cuerda seca tiles, but which appears almost to have been painted on top of the glaze before it was fired. The heavy outlines of the border palmettes show this second thicker black very clearly.

A tile with a very similar design of a lattice formed of curling saz leaves, small blue rosettes and fleshy palmettes sold in these Rooms, 6 October 2011, lot 315 (now in the Sadberk Hanim Museum). Whilst the palmette borders there were slightly different, the finesse of the drawing is absolutely the same.
