This talwar is part of a weapons collection that my sister and I inherited from our father a few years ago. Other than what I have read in this forum and on Wikipedia, I know next to nothing about this type of sword. It has a silver gilt pommel, grip, and guard, with gold accents. The blade is covered with decorations of hunting scenes and animal battles. I guess this talwar would qualify as a koftigari.
Would anyone care to hazard a guess on its age? Has anyone seen something similar, and if so where? Thanks! I'll post a few photos here, more images are available in this Google+ album https://plus.google.com/photos/11392...46608538982497 |
