What does this mean?

Hello, this item is an illuminated Qur’an manuscript, measuring approximately 8.25 by 5.5 inches, bound in a traditional Islamic leather binding with flap closure. The cover features hand-painted geometric and floral motifs in gold and polychrome pigments. The interior shows illuminated pages framing the opening surahs, consistent with Qur’ans produced in the late 19th to early 20th century, likely from Ottoman Turkey, India, or Iran, based on stylistic features such as border patterns, calligraphy style, and paper texture.

Given its fair condition—with visible discoloration on page edges and some wear to the leather binding—this Qur’an would generally be appraised within a range of $300 to $800 USD.
