Nice takouba sword for comments

I agree with your age assessment, and I also agree that the silver fittings are much higher grade than what is usually found on more modern takoubas. Five fullers are also a relatively rare feature and the whole sword looks like a status piece, and not a souvenir. Personally, I find it a very aesthetically pleasing as well and I am sure it would look great on your living room's wall.
