Catalogue Note
A Tab'a from the same group is in the Dar Belghazi Museum, Sidi Bouknadel-Salé (see: RABATE, M.-R. & GOLDENBERG, A., Bijoux du Maroc, Edisud, Paris, 1999, p.39). A similar medallion but inset with stones of various colours was exhibited in Paris (see: Maroc, les Trésors du Royaume, Flammarion, Paris, 1999, p.190, no.350). See also a very close Tab'a to ours sold at Christie's London, Art of the Islamic and Indian Worlds, 17th April 2007, lot 349.
