Sinan Gabriela Silang bolo
Hello,
Excited and pleased to share with you an unusual piece- a Sinan Gabriela Silang/Gabrila bolo with a 'ganado' blade profile.
It was given as a souvenir by the late Governor Carmeling P. Crisologo (first woman governor of Ilocos Sur: 1964-1971).
(with engraving on the side of the blade: I have put some chalk to what we can read the inscription).
The seller is an old woman (from Ilocos Sur) and this particular bolo was given to her husband.
Enjoy
