Sabz Burj’s conservation is finishing this month. The project was started four years ago by the Aga Khan Trust for Culture (AKTC) in partnership with Havells India. The tomb still is subtly melancholic, but no longer run-down. “Master craftsmen restored the facade’s missing ornamentation, conservators unearthed the painted ceiling underneath a later cement layer, stone carvers put back the sandstone lattice screens, handmade glazed tiles were put up where those were missing,” says Ujwala Menon from AKTC.
