Makara hilted talwar

Another clear out, I need the wall space for something new. This is a nice and unusual piece. The hilt is cast brass and I think I'm right in saying it's in the Makara style, the animal/monster head terminal is very finely carved, the fangs being very distinct. The blade is thin and sharp still, of reasonable quality and has a few old rust pits. The scabbard is original and in good condition. Thats about all I can say. A nice and well crafted sword.
I'm looking for £120 or somewhere near. Sorry for picture quality, I will get my son to take more pics if required.
