So please, do not worry about the museums, they are all the same.

This museum has a lot of rare examples of weapons and armor but their images are for the most part really horrible, how hard it it to properly photograph an item even if you can not correctly identify it.

Koummya, Dagger and sheath Morocco 19th century to 20th century. [Baldric] Red Moroccan leather suspension pouch and strap for a dagger (Koummya), tooled and embroidered with silver and gold wire.

Here is a perfect example, a very rare pair of Indian armored shoes, so badly photographed that you can hardly see any details, there is no excuse for this, I can take a better photo with a cell phone.

Pair of armoured of brass and steel mail and plate on a padded leather foundation. The forefoot is composed of rows of chevron-shaped alternating rows of brass and steel cusped overlapping plates connected with mail. The sides of the shoes are composed of cusped alternating steel and brass plates. The shoes terminate in brass tips. Place of Origin, Bhuj, Kutch India (made), 19th century (made), Leather with brass and steel.
