Relative size of this object is displayed using code inspired by Good Form and Spectacle's work on the British Museum's Waddeson Bequest website and their dimension drawer. They chose a tennis ball to represent a universally sized object, from which you could envisage the size of an object.

See note by Dr Kanona on mount: not Basohli but Kulu, a particularly fine example. Miss Pirzada agrees.
