Notes
Book binding
Binding: Probably rebound in a lacquer cover, decorated with flower patterns, arranged as a bouquet in a vase in the shape of a pointed medallion (on both inside and outside front and back cover). The composition as well as the dominating red and orange colours are typical of Kashmiri lacquerwork. (Karin Ådahl op.cit. p. 5) Back in black leather; front cover slightly damaged and repaired with a piece of marbled paper.
Decoration
Richly illuminated unwan on ff. 8b-9a, unfinished unwans on ff. 178b-179a, 188b. 35 miniatures on the following folios: 22a, 24a, 32b, 33b, 34b, 40b, 42a, 44a, 46b, 48b, 53a, 54b, 60a, 63a, 70a, 77b, 80a, 84b, 87a, 91b, 98b, 102b, 104a, 108b, 114a, 116b, 135b, 136b, 142b, 144b, 148b, 155a, 159b, 162b, 172b.
