LAQ 2 Isfahan, Iran

third quarter of the 17th century

varnished miniature, set in a carved ivory case

8 x 4.7cm

The ivory case is in two parts. One acts as a sliding cover, which opens on a pivot to reveal a bust portrait of Shah ‘Abbas II, who ruled from 1642 to 1666. The cover is carved in low relief in the form of a spray of three flowers partially enclosed within a disc, which has been set with a smaller disc of painted lacquer at its centre.
