This decorated rete is in the Indian tradition, with an arc of the equatorial ring in the upper half of the ecliptic and rather heavy foliate forms serving ring in the upper half of the ecliptic and rather heavy foliate forms serving as the star-pointers. Although the star-pointers have been constructed with some care, the rete is essentially non-fuctional since the scale of the ecliptic is not marked. It is nevertheless not without historical interest. The horizontal bar is counter-changed at the equinoxes and at the centre. There is a vertical bar complete but for two multilobed bi-furcated frames just below the northern and southern limits of the ecliptic, the upper one broader than the lower one. There is a small knob just below the first of these frames. In addition, there is a short equatorial bar across the vertical axis inside the ecliptic. The design of the rete bears some resemblance to that on a signed astrolabe made in Lahore in 1609 and now preserved in Hannover; however, this rete cannot be definitively associated with the Lahore school.

The ecliptic is divided only for the zodiacal signs whose names are correctly written. The star-pointers, some of which have small holes near the tips to indicate the precise star-positions, serve the following 26 stars, here listed in four quadrants counter-clockwise from the vernal equinox:
