The master piece is a luxury metal work which was crafted as early as 1300. The bag much looks like a clutch bag we see in shops today and is inlaid with intricate scenes of courtly life in gold and silver. It is decorated with courtly life scenes of a couple surrounded by their retinue of courtiers, musicians, hunters and revellers. It is ranked as one of the finest piece of Islamic inlaid metalwork in existence.
