A Unique Portuguese Wheel-lock Pistol, ca. 1570, Hermitage Museum St. Petersburg
Stocked in finely carved ivory (and this is one of the very few pieces that are not inlaid with staghorn or bone which is only commonly called 'ivory'), with scroll butt and the characteristic Portuguese type of wheel-lock, together with its profusely carved iron spanner.
Found on the web. Do you like it, 'Nando?  Best, Michael Last edited by Matchlock; 6th January 2011 at 03:59 AM. |
