To me this looks like an Omani/East African saif. The way the silver wire is braided under the guard is characteristic. The floral motive in the guard also looks Omani. And while certain parts, like the pommel cap may be be replacements to the originals, it very much looks like a 19th century antique to me. What are the dimensions?
