hi andrew,
i'm sorry i cant offer any more info than the images itself, as it was quite sometime that i saw this collection.
the fabulous tulwar and the katar were attributed to tipu, and the katar holds a label that states (from memory) that it was a gift from the marquis of wellesly to the duke of wellington (his brother or brother in law).
incidentley, the duke of wellingtons address was No 1, London. not bad, eh!
