Default Shamshir from Turkmenа
Hello guys

Perhaps someone in the collection has a shamshir sword in a similar decor? I will be grateful if you share photos.

This is Turkmenia in the late 19th century.

A very curious subject! The decoration is clearly made by a master from Dagestan.

Yes. You are absolutely right. This work was made by a Dagestan master for the Turkmen leader

Ok that makes sense. I LOVE the horse head pommels and the great silver repousse work!
