Burmese Dha Handle
This is ivory Burmese Dha dagger handle. Total length is 4 inches. The quality of the carving attracted my attention, especially the vegetation scroll pattern (initially I thought it to be Indian:-). My knowledge about this area is limited. Would appreciate any opinion on quality/rarity, age estimate, etc. Is it typical style/type or any special?
