This is why they get so much attention when they do come to market,’ says William Robinson, our International Head of Islamic Art in London.⠀ .⠀ This monumental royal Qur’an was made for Sultan Qaytbay of Egypt, who Robinson considers the last great sultan of the Mamluk period (1250-1517).⠀ .⠀ ‘Although this Qur’an is over 500 years old, its pages are in excellent condition and retain their bright, fresh, cream colour.’⠀ .⠀ Qur’an, signed Tanam al-Najmi al-Maliki al-Ashrafi, Mamluk Egypt, dated 21 Jumada I 894/30 April 1489. Folio 26 ¾ x 18 in (68 x 45.5 cm).
