Created by the Islamic School, these remarkable works of art are a testament to the skill and craftsmanship of their creators. The centerpiece of this collection is the Queen piece, which has been intricately modeled as an elegant elephant. Its regal presence is enhanced by the use of diamonds and rubies that adorn its surface, adding a touch of opulence and luxury. The attention to detail is truly remarkable, with delicate enameling depicting vibrant flowers on both the base and sides.
