Yes Ham, I wote for Sind as well

.

We all know that the enamel technique used in India was champlevé. Can anyone then explain to me, why they in Kashmir used cloisonné, and one more thing, why did they not use the past all the others used in places like Lahore, Luchnow, Jaypore, Sind and other places, why did they paint the surface with a sort of silicate or readily fusible paint and then heat it moderately, sufficient to melt the paint but not to cause the colours to fuse together. From where did they learn this technique, when the others used quite another technique?
