Rectangular Silver Signet with Farsi inscription, 6.36g, dated AH 1244. The inscription reads ???? ????? ????? ????? ??? ???? (Nawab Karamat al-Nisa Begam Sahiba 1244). Stylistically the seal is of a North Indian origin and was the personal seal of a noblewoman named Karamat un-Nisa, possibly from the Awadh nobility. AH 1244 corresponds to 1828 AD, so the seal would be dated to the reign of Nasiruddin Haidar (1827-1837). Extremely Fine, Rare.
