As a "quickie", end of 19, more likely first quarter of 20 century. Daghestani masters, likely from Vladikavkaz workshop ( purely statistically).
Closer pics will provide additional details, and I and other here will be glad to help.

But the best way, - get Kirill Rivkin's book "Arms and Armor of Caucasus".
