Sanskrit - Islamic Scripture - 1850

A loose-leaf Sanskrit manuscript, Devanagari script, complete in 410 leaves, ink on paper, each folio ruled in red and yellow with a central text panel; folio numbers in the left margin. Content appears to be a devotional or ritual work incorporating verse sections marked by panda punctuation and red numerals, alongside passages of repeated seed-syllable (bijou) notation suggestive of tantric or mantra-recitation material. paper and pigment is consistent with pre-modern production, so our estimated date is later early-mid C19th.
