What bothers me is this statue on the scabbard.
I don't think arabs would make these.
Is it possible, that it was done in Lviv by armenian masters?
From my point of view floral ornament, and the kozak itself is solely generic for Ukrainian design tradition.
in this case, arabs only made the pommel, the rest came later.
