Maces, Clubs & Others

[trajan]

Sorry I can't help you with the horsehair piece Arsenal. I've not encountered a similar piece and my reference books had nothing as well.

as to the figural maces, there is a bull with cup as well that is of similar quality of the other cup pieces from late 19th century-early 20th century . The ones without cup are earlier.

What about the ones without the cup?? Are they earlier? I would love to find out how to distinguish the periods of Indo-Persian maces.
Also, since you such a big fan of Indo-Persian maces may be you can tell me something about the 1st peace I posted from my personal collection. Although I think it is not an actual mace but rather a horsetail standard for an officer.
