Description
The entrance doors to the Yesil Türbe in Bursa of western Anatolia are artefacts of manifold interest for the study of the importance of the city of Tabriz in Iran of the Timurid era. Was Tabriz a center of invention, trade and crafts for the western Muslim world at this time?
The doors to this particular tomb-shrine can be dated to the early 15th century, having been carved and constructed for the Ottoman Sultan Mehmed I who died in the month of Jumādā I, 824 A.H. corresponding to May, 1421 A.D., giving us a very clear chronological indicator.
