Vakili Popalzai, the book The History of the Noble Kandahar Cloak, has seen the cloak up close: The cover is a thick woolen garment made of pure camel thin wool. Its color is like the sky. The size of the clothes seems shorter than a human being. Its sleeves are also shorter than usual. The front of the dress is sewn with wool thread, and there is no bottom strip around the skirt. This dress has worn out over time.
The building includes a mosque, a hall with a dome, and a courtyard or courtyard. The cloak is kept in the lobby, inside a base box. Chandeliers hang from the dome roof.
