Notlar	Pair of doors with ivory inlay. These two doors contain a central design of carved ivory and wooden elements, which have been salvaged from an older pair (probably from a minbar, or pulpit), and re-mounted in modern frames. This type of composite reconstruction was an important woodworking industry in nineteeth-century Cairo, and represented a combination of fragment salvage and historicist imitation. The industry continued into the twentieth century. Few of the original decorative segments remain here, and the joiner has carved new "replacement" panels to fill up the geometric pattern. When closed together, the pair of doors create a single twelve-sided polygon in their central design. Two door (matching pair), wood frame with carved wood (unidentified) and ivory inlays, metal lock and hinges, each with main vertical panel of three half dodecagons (offset) with central radiating stars, smaller ivory-outlined panels at top and bottom, probably Cairo, Egypt, some of the carved ivory foliate panels and outline border ivory elements c. 1400-1450, later replacement inserts and main door frame possibly c. 1900-1930
