From India. Green stone hilt. Artzi had some listed as made late 19th or 20th century for sale to European travelers. Good quality monosteel blade and nice workmanship. I'd love to know what the hilt is made of. Something similar to jade perhaps? Scabbard is in poor condition, but with nice nickel silver chape. Any additional information or comments eagerly sought. Found this one at a gunshow yesterday in NC. First time I've seen a nice ethnographic piece locally.
Thanks! Steve ![]() ![]() ![]() |
