Hi Maurice,

very nice shield. Great to find the handle and cushion intact. + an old label.

Hi Willem,

Thank you. I like the rattan version, the 'peurise awe', more from an artistic point of view. But that the handle and cushion are both still present, was the deciding factor for me buying it.
I personally never have seen one (peurise Teumaga) so complete before.

Kind regards,
Maurice

This one will come soon to me, the diameter is 38 cm. Sadly some loss by the rotan.

Congrats Detlef,

Nice shield. Sometimes these old damages bring character to, in this case, the peurise.
I have several objects with clear 'war' damages. Most of these were pick-ups from the battlefield, or convescated, and taken home by Dutch east Indië marechaussees...

Thank you Maurice! And yes, I agree, many times old damages bring character to items. In this case for sure!
