Hi,

this is a very nice Dutch hunting hanger, a carved stylish lions head made in Ceylon.

these hangers are made in the end of the 17thC till mid 18thC.
yours has a Dutch smallsword blade and can be dated in the second quarter of the 18thC.
see similar examples from the visser collection.

Best,
Jasper
