Crouching LionCrouching Lion'sThis one comes from the private collection of Mr. V. Raghunathan, President of ING Vysya Bank. It's a original 10.5 x 8 x 3 cms made of brass, est. to be from later 19th to early 20th century. 'A rare lock, it displays an amazing understanding of topology by the master craftsman of Aligarh.
