See also this postcard of an Ali-Baba cavern. Tunis circa 1900 with a stamp REGENCE DE TUNIS.
A lot of very good things.... saïfs, berber & kable muskets, ....and carpets of course.
The Regency of Tunis had the same firearms process as Morocco, but at a less important scale. They had a foundry and a forge of artillery (Algiers & Tripoli never had) and for light firearms, their speciality was the marine (navy) blunderbuss.
On this link, you will see a nice example of a tunisian (berber type) musket of mine.
