“The unusually heavy and round lock is a standard Aligarh specimen in brass with a breathtaking tribal etching of mythological figures done in all probability by Bastar tribal in Madhya Pradesh. The etchings represent Lord Krishna cavorting with Radha on one side of the lock, with Lord Hanuman on the other side” says the label.
