Notes
This storage box is the finest preserved of a small group of pearl-inlaid and lacquered furniture – all from Gujarat. The lid is decorated with a spiral decoration which helps us date it. The matching pearl-inlaid decoration was found on a pavilion made in 1608-9 for the tomb of the Sufi Sheikh Nizamuddin Aulia in Delhi.
