Hi Michael,
For me it is not so much about the dating. most of it is made in less than 3/4 of a century. more interesting is to identify and indicate the trends in those hilt types. best, |

There are many valuable illustrations on the 10 pages on which many different types can been seen . however a short and concise classification or typology overview I have not found.I will try to make one if I find some time.

Hi Jasper,
I noticed that item when it was still in an online auction. Some of the decorative elements remind me of Oriental influence. They seldom appear on the market. What approximate date would you assign to this object? Best, Michael |
