persian ? sipar shield

[francantolin]

Hello dear members,

I got this steel shield and wanted to share it with you,
not too large, 31cm / 12,2 inches in diameter.

I think it comes from persia-Iran more than India
a 19th century sipar ??

Relief under the rust indicate there is/was koftgari work,
I have to remove it ( and not overclean it...)
