Hand Painted Persian Calligraphy Hunting Scene Camel Bone Khatam Kari Inlay Frame

The picture is painted on a camel bone slab. The picture frame measures 12 1/4" long and 6 1/2" wide.  The bone slab measures 6 3/4" wide and 2" high.  This one is signed by the artist in the right hand side of the bone. I purchased this item from a small antiquities shop in Alexandria early 1993 however I have no clue how old it actually is. It is in mint condition - only hung on my wall for a short period of time. Carefully stored.

Khatamkari is one of the Persian arts of marquetry wherein the surface of wooden or metallic articles is decorated with pieces of wood, bone cut in a variety of shapes and designs
