While the four panels with vases on are likely to have stood upright in a Damascus room, the wider panels – with their recessed central area and symmetrical design – are likely to have been made as beams for a ceiling (Anke Scharrahs, Damascene ‘Ajami Rooms, London, 2013, p.68). Reception rooms in Damascus were generally flat, in contrast to those in Aleppo and Hama which were often vaulted. All six panels are not only painted, but also decorated with plasterwork which has then had metal foil applied.
