A 10 inch plate carrying the phrase Ma sha Allah, la quwwata illa billah, written in cream across a green and yellow wash. A ring of smaller script runs round the well and a solid cobalt edge closes the rim. The color is brushed on loose and watery, so it pools and streaks the way watercolor does.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does the stand come with it?
Yes. The carved wooden easel in the photo is included.
What does the calligraphy say?
Ma sha Allah, la quwwata illa billah, which is from Surah Al-Kahf (Quran 18:39). It is usually rendered in English as "What God has willed, there is no power except with God".
Can I hang it on the wall instead?
Yes, with a standard spring plate hanger. The rim is thick enough to take one without chipping.
Is it safe to serve food on?
The glaze is lead-free, so technically yes. It is made as a display piece though, and the writing is the reason to own it, so we would keep food off it.
Handcrafted in Multan, Pakistan. Minor variations in color and pattern are natural features of authentic handmade work.
