A finely crafted qalamdan (pen box) featuring intricate brass inlay over a dark wooden body. The elongated form with domed lid reflects traditional Islamic design, historically used to store writing instruments. The floral and geometric brass work adds depth and contrast, showcasing detailed handwork and decorative refinement.
The interior is fitted and lined, while the exterior shows a naturally aged patina, enhancing its antique character. Pieces of this style were commonly produced in India, inspired by Persian and Ottoman artistic traditions.
