Notlar	Velvet panel for a balcony rail. This silk panel is designed to hang over a balcony rail, showing the same image on either side: a row of flowering plants, drafted with careful naturalism. While this reflects court taste in seventeenth-century India, the textile structure reveals that it was produced in contemporary Safavid Iran, almost certainly for export to neighbouring India. According to an inventory note on the back, by February 1648, the panel was in the royal textile store (farrashkhana) in Amer fort in Jaipur, then ruled by Maharaja Jai Singh I (r. 1621-1667). Panel, silk velvet, designed to hang over a balcony rail, two matching designs of leafy flowering plants and curling clouds against cream ground, bordered with floral scollwork of tulips and narcissi, on the reverse are five dated inventory statements written in Hindi in Devanagari script (ranging between 1648 and 1666), recording the textile's size and valuation, added at the royal textile store (farrashkhana) at Amer Fort, Jaipur, India, produced in Iran for export to India, probably Isfahan, Iran, c. 1600-1648.
