Hi
Allow me to introduce myself ,
My first name is Dominique, either Dom
I’m French (nobody is perfect ), not a great specialist or expert in ethnographic arms & amour,
but 35 years of the Middle East (EG, KSA, KW, UAE) & Great Maghreb (DZ, LY), associated to a natural curiosity for weapons, made that without being a collector, I nevertheless tried to gather some white arms & amour parts where ever I was residing
Moreover in here is a round shield (Rondache) about which I wish to ask for some questions about it's was bought in the 80’s from Jeddah KSA,
I have of make restore the central part in brass which had disappeared,
average restoration (in Egypt ), the replacing cabochon is of a size lower than the original in sight of tracks left by the precedent
with your opinion;
- that it’s could be his origin;? Yemen, Persia? or ?
- datation, I think circa XIX or any beginning of XX ??
just f.y.i., I reconstituted myself the leather belts
best regards
