Interesting Katar with chiseled blade for comment

[Anandalal N.]

Lovely piece. It is a double row of parrots (See distinct beak shape, tarsus and toes in the distinct gripping shape of a passerine and long tail that supports it in perching); which are very much part of Hindu iconography (though not exclusively so) and is the direction I would look in. Would like to know what you find.

Regards.
