A most interesting axe from the Zanzibar region. The haft bears a "coin" which from the Arabic translates as Hassan Saad son of Ahmed Hassan Al Akache 1889.
It is thought that this axe possibly originally belonged to an Arab slave trader though no concrete provenance was supplied with the item.
US$375 (or sensible offer) including Worldwide Airmail shipping.
