Description

RARE GOLD ILLUMINATED QUR’AN LEAF FROM OTTOMAN ERA (1788):
This is a beautiful handwritten
Quran
leaf from an old manuscript copied in
Egypt
long time ago. It is
undated
but a previous owner’s
seal
is dated
1203 AH
(
1788 AD
)
and his name is
Khazendar Osman Aga
(the treasurer of
Ismail Beck Ismail
)
; and I am sure is
more than 300 years old
. Unfortunately, the last leaf was dilapidated and the
exact date vanished
.
This is
1
leaf with
2
pages and represents verses from
Sura Al Waq'iah
(
The Event
)
. The text is framed within a
real gold
frame. The
dots
between verses are pure gold as well.
It is written with beautiful Arabic calligraphy.
The leaf is in good condition and show minimal damage on the borders. Some
ink blotches
and some
dirt
as well. Foxing is not serious and minimal worming.
It measures 23.0 cm x 16.0 cm.
You

exactly what you
