Description

The domed lid is designed with a central raised panel accented by radial ribs and scrolling floral motifs set against a textured ground. The body is divided into rectangular panels, each containing intricate floral designs, with a prominent central scene depicting a horse. This item exemplifies the Mamluk Revival style, drawing on Moorish and Islamic decorative traditions popular during the late Victorian and Edwardian periods.
