Apparently, this Khanjarli currently belongs to Mahratt. True?
It was first shown in the Russian book “ Mortal Beauty”( State Museum of the Orient, 2015, item # 84).
Museum items were shown separately, so it seems that this Khanjarli used to belong to one of the two private collectors, Messr. Popov and Kormshchikov, who provided items from their collections for the exhibition.
Seems to me the previous owner might possess important information about the mysterious figure.
