Default Bullova Axe

Just won this bullova axe off of ebay. It appears to be of fairly good quality. What do you guys think?

Thumbs up

A NICE ONE AT A FAIR PRICE , CONGRADULATIONS

THE WORKMANSHIP AND DECORATION ARE ABOVE AVERAGE ON THE HEAD OF THIS EXAMPLE, THE SHAFT IS PLAIN BUT DOES HAVE THE IRON BAND ON THE BUTT WHICH ALSO IS A SIGN OF BETTER WORKMANSHIP. MANY DON'T HAVE THE IRON BAND ON THE BUTT OF THE HANDLE. NICE CATCH.

Thanks for the replies. I'm not very familiar with these weapons. Does the seller's estimate of the 19th century sound correct for how old it is? Thanks.

Mid to late 19th century.
