Yes, Marius could be right, that the shield may be of wootz.
What are the 'nails' at the edge of the shield? Is the decoration inlay or koftgari? I have a katar, Rajput North India 18th century, with more or less the same floral decoration, but as floral decoration in many variations/combinations have been used over a very long period, this does not mean much. |
