Sometimes referred to as red gold, saffron is a spice used widely in Azerbaijani cuisine (in plov, piti and sujug, among others), as well as folk medicine and dyeing, such as in the process of premium carpet weaving. Absheron saffron is famous worldwide for its exquisite taste and fragrance. According to historical records, there were hundreds of saffron plantations in Absheron in the early 18th century. Plovs, deemed the pinnacle of Azerbaijani cuisine, are flavoured with saffron, adding an appetising aroma and beautiful colour to the dishes. Saffron syrup is used in the preparation of Azerbaijani national desserts, especially pakhlava.

The world we live in is built in such a way that the past and lifestyle of every nation is embodied in its historical territories and monuments. Some have survived to this day, and some have lost their traces as a result of natural disasters and wars. «Shams Ceramic» brand, which has been operating since 2019, produces ceramic mini-models of historical monuments that have been destroyed in the territory of Azerbaijan. In addition to reflecting the full reality, these monuments are an example of art that preserves the national architectural style and national values. Each one is hand-crafted, meticulously crafted and produced in limited quantities, and comes with special packaging and an information booklet. There are up to 100 types of products. This includes our castles, tombs, mosques, tomb rams, national symbols and attributes, which are included in the list of intangible cultural heritage of UNESCO. The works were confirmed by the ALARA registration certificate. «Shams ceramic» also produces custom-made gift products for companies and administrations. These art samples are displayed for foreign and local guests at state-important events and opening ceremonies. Our main goal is to take ownership of our past, promote our monuments and bring them to the public.
