Ethiopian ''dhal'' shield ??
Hello dear members,
Maybe in link with my other post about the african dagger,
I was today in a fleamarket and I found this old all waved leather shield 😁
I think/hope 19th century
Reasonable price so I bought it
Four iron bosses and eight smaller brass dots around.
For me it looks like an indian dhal shield ,
but the seller assured me that he took it back himself long time ago from Ethiopia...
What do you think ??
Kind regards
