Double Minaret Madrasa Restoration, Erzurum (Çifte Minareli Medrese)
As part of the Double Minaret Madrasa Erzurum restoration project, İznik Mavi Çini undertook the reproduction of the building’s tile surfaces in accordance with their original form. The works carried out on this structure in Erzurum focused on preserving the Seljuk-period tile tradition. Tiles produced in various geometric forms were handled in harmony with the madrasa’s existing architectural layout.
