There were missing turquoises and corals (around 25), with empty or dark red wax filled holes. I made them completed by a master, and the scabbard's very heavy patina cleared,revealing the gilding, which is thick and complete to my luck. Attached pictures are the situation 2 months after the restoration. Patina has slightly restarted in especially crowded parts.
