Arabo-Ottoman sword
Hello to all members.
Can you help me to learn more about this "nice" saber that i've find 1 month weeks ago in a flea market in " La Louvière / Belgium ".
The flexible blade is marked (European mark may be). The handle appears to be rhino horn and silver. Traces of red lacquer in the etched silver patterns. the scabbard is in wood covered with skin. I seem to be in good condition. The rope is faded but it was red and blue.
93 cm long for all
68,8 cm long for the blade
Thank you for your help and see you soon
Fabrice
