Default Eastern Arms in Armeria Reale di Torino

the armeria reale di torino has a fabulous collection of eastern and islamic arms. although not a big collection, its quality is very high. the museum is closed at the moment for refurbishment, but thought i'd share some of the pieces, in case i inspire anyone to make the journey.
two pieces attached are a taster (i finally got someting to get andrews attention) and will post more. the collection caters for all tastes, with a few great examples from all cultures inc kris,dha,ottoman,african, persian and, most importantly, south india ( )
sorry for the poor images.
