A newly aquired Kirach

Hi Rick,

Long time no hear, but that is my fault – I know. I have been busy writing on some articles, now that the Bundi katar article has been published, I research the age of the katar, and this is almost finished. Then comes the research for a half written article about a tulwar I have, which I can pin point, not only to a certain state, but also to a state within a state. All very interesting, but also very time consuming.

The kirach hilt is a lovely one, and as old as the blade. The makara and the snake are unusual, as is the form of the disc. At the inside of the disc you can see a flower.
Sorry for the two pictures - I must be getting old
