Text frames are triple-ruled lines of black ink. Verse (ayah) markers are red circles. Surah headings are in red ink, set in double-ruled frames, often with knotted ta marbuta. Juz' are marked in the text with a red circle with finials are the four cardinal points, and in the margin with an inscription in red ink, and on the facing page with marginal illuminated ornaments of triple-stacked roundel in green and gold, which are probably modern additions.

There are 3 sets of double decorated frames, in green and dark pink outlined in gold and black ink, which are probably modern additions:ff. 1v-2r, S. al-Fātiḥah and beg. of S. al-Baqarah; ff. 147v-148r: second page of S. al-Kahfff. 296v-297r: final six surahs.

The illuminated frontispiece (f. 1r) giving the name of Pangeran Paku Ningrat, of the court of Sumeneb [Madura], the year 1793 (i.e. A.J. 1793=AD 1865) is probably a modern addition to the 19th-century manuscript (cf. Gallop 2017: 113-114).
