Please have a look at the attached shell guard of 2 ethnographic swords (probably from Bicol, Philippines, during the Spanish colonial period):
Are these recycled pieces or of local craftmanship?
Can their origin be narrowed down to a specific style/period/locale?
Here is the thread (http://www.vikingsword.com/vb/showthread.php?t=17117) with more pics.
Thanks a lot!
