The Nastaliq script is the most elegant and refined form of Persian calligraphy, developed in Iran in the 14th–15th centuries. It is often called the “bride of calligraphic scripts” for its beauty and flowing rhythm — traditionally used in Persian manuscripts, poetry, and sacred art.
This piece is 100% original and fully handwritten, signed by the artist, and accompanied by handmade paper — a hallmark of authentic Persian artistry.
