I agree with Charles - etch the blade - I see the possibility of patterns in the blade.
I also agree with Charles - this is horn, rare, and I like the carvings. Would you post pictures of the top of the pommel please? On date - I am thinking as is - last quarter of the 19th century. Where? - well harder but certainly in the Sulu region. |
