{"title":"Islamic Faithful Replicas","description":"\u003cp\u003eIslamic art in Egypt flourished following the Muslim conquest in 641 CE, transforming Cairo into one of the world›s premier centers of Islamic architecture and craftsmanship. Guided by the principle of Tawhid (divine unity), it avoided the portrayal of living beings, choosing instead to decorate spaces with intricate arabesques, complex geometric patterns, and elegant Arabic calligraphy. Egypt’s art evolved across powerful dynasties: the Tulunids introduced unique spiral minarets, the Fatimids perfected shimmering lustreware ceramics and defensive stone gates, and the Mamluks raised monumental limestone mosques featuring monumental domes and delicate woodwork.\u003c\/p\u003e","products":[{"product_id":"ibn-tulun-minaret-eg","title":"Ibn-Tulun Minaret","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%; font-family: 'Calibri',sans-serif; mso-ascii-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-fareast-font-family: Calibri; mso-fareast-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-hansi-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial; mso-bidi-theme-font: minor-bidi; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-fareast-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-language: AR-SA;\"\u003eThe “Minaret of Ibn-Tulun Mosque” in Cairo is a striking example of 9th-century Islamic architecture.
