For the identity of the German blade maker, possibly numbers 49 and 88 of this catalogue are relevant.
https://www.yumpu.com/es/document/re...a-de-andalucia He could be Enrique Coel - Köhl. As for quillions under the cup, they are a distinctive characteristic of Mexican revolutionary swords with archaistic and rustic aspect. Last edited by midelburgo; 8th June 2020 at 11:45 AM. |

How is your Portuguese ?
Quote:
The crucified Christ, with or without the cross, the MIN SENAL motto, the mention EN ALEMANIA, whether by Coel - Köhl - Col not, are allusive motives that were used by several smiths, famous and not, originators of the said symbols us just replicators. Take a look at theses few swords shown in a exhibition of Portuguese/Spanish ornamental art held in 1882 in the Academy of Beaux Arts. In some cases is the symbol/motto that figures, in others figures the smith names ... or his marks. . |
