Need Assadullah Help

AJ1356 · 27th March 2013, 08:23 PM

Fellow collectors, I need your combined help with some pictures of Assadullah seals. It would be especially helpful if it would included the seals with Shah Abbas's name as well. I am trying to research a couple of shamshirs, but am not having any luck on the internet search engines. Your help would be greatly appreciated. Soon I'll provide some eye candy for you all with some of my recent finds

Hopfully someone can bring Olivers article to the surface, it is linked in an old thread.

Regards

Gavin

Thanks Gavin,
I think this is the link for the old post, but I don't think the link in it works, maybe Ward can help, I'll email him.

Gav, thanks for the article. It has some very good information. The blade I was researching, at the first look, I thought the mark was new and not original Assadullah, there were lots of tell tales but I just wanted to make sure I am not telling someone the mark is fake while it was not. I have to take a closer look at the blade someday, since I think it might have step pattern wootz.
