Greetings fellow collectors.
I recently acquired this Qajar Shamshir with a serpent running down the blade. I understand that Naga’s are a thing in Indian (Hindu) mythology. May I ask. Does anyone have an understanding of the significance of the serpent in the Persian tradition, in regards to sword blades. I wonder if the serpent was applied or somehow ground/hammered down from a thicker piece of Wootz. Thanks. |
