The folio f.1a has an illuminated rectangular panel executed in blue and brown which has an upper cartouche that contains the title of the book, a central (turban-like) rosette that contains the author's name, and a lower cartouche which has the library’s name of Yashbak al-Dawadār al-Ashrafī al-Sayfī.
