Ms. 2 forms part of a multi-volume muṣḥaf with each juzʼ bound in a single volume.

Support: European laid paper with chain lines running horizontally spaced 26 mm. apart and laid lines spaced roughly 10 laid lines per cm. ; watermarks include eagle, wings and legs spread, with "B G" below alternating with scrollwork or coat of arms with crown above and inside lion rampant (?) ; some ink and leather burn. Decoration: Illuminated marginal rosette with vertical stalk accents marks the opening of this juzʼ ; textual dividers in the form of gold discs mark verse endings ; written area framed by a heavy gold band flanked with black fillets ; simple rectangular panels bear each sūrah heading (often flanking the basmalah) in gold-framed cartouche ; empty tailpiece appears at close on fol.14a (p.27) ; text rubricated with sūrah headings, sigla (namely "ط" for "مطلق" to mark pauses) and other abbreviations, etc. in red. Script: Naskh ; fine Ottoman hand (?) ; partially seriffed with tear-drop head serif on shafts for lām, ṭāʼ, etc. but not free-standing alif ; point of final nūn often joined to bowl ; slight effect of tilt to the left ; graceful but heavy line ; fully vocalized. Layout: Written in 11 lines per page ; frame-ruled. Collation: VII (14) ; catchwords present ; pagination in pencil supplied during digitization. Title from label on upper cover. Ms. codex. Bookplate of British Museum, London on interior of upper cover, "No. 64. Kuran XXIX." ; circular seal impression with figure of goat/gazelle in purple ink as well as inscription "265" in Western numerals on fol.1a (p.1).
