Notes
A composite crown, the cup of which is furnished with two asymmetrical strands of simple, smooth acanthus flowers with curled ends, surrounded by toothed floral decorations. Intertwined decorations emanate from the flap of the crown, and on its ornament in the four facades located between the spiral decorations is flowed a supplication written in cursive script letters, within which we can read: “In the name of God, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful! Pray / O God upon our Master Muhammad / and his family and grant [them] complete peace / O God, protect me from the accursed Satan.”
