Description
«قهوتي سادة… ومزاجي كذلك» — “My coffee's black, and so is my mood.” Dry Gulf humour on 5 mm acrylic. The tray for the person who takes it without sugar and says so; it sits well on a desk, a bar counter or beside an espresso machine. Here in Diwani, the ceremonial Ottoman hand — the letters knot and climb, and the phrase becomes an ornament before it becomes a sentence.
Made to order — 5–7 working days for production
A serving tray carrying «قهوتي سادة… ومزاجي كذلك» ("My coffee's black — and so is my mood") in Diwani calligraphy — 30×26×5 cm · 5mm acrylic, exactly as shown in the 3D render and projection drawings.
Choose your colour: Clear — crystal-clear acrylic, or Gold-tinted — acrylic with a golden tint. The photo follows your choice.
Made in the UAE. Cut, assembled and hand-finished in our own workshop — sanded, cleaned and inspected before it is packed.

▸ What is it made of?
Acrylic — cut, assembled and hand-finished in our UAE workshop; the colour choices are listed above.
▸ How do I look after it?
Wipe it with a soft, lint-free cloth (microfibre is best) and lukewarm water or a little mild soap, in straight lines. No ammonia glass cleaner, no scouring pad, no paper towel: acrylic scratches more easily than glass. Keep it out of direct sun and away from heat — a stove, a heater — which can warp it.
▸ Does software touch it?
The letterforms are a real typeface shaped in Mashq Studio; what you see is the vector we make. No image model draws or repaints a letter.
