A friend sent me these pictures of this small cannon which she has and wondered if any members can help with dating / country of origin etc .I imagine its just a decorative model but it has a bored through touch hole and the barrel is fully bored out . The barrel length is 15" & total length of the piece is approx 17 1/2" . The bore diameter is 0.75'' . I have handled it and it seems very well made and of good quality, it is surprisingly heavy . The cartouche on the barrel depicts 2 men swordfighting.
