Well, there is something I don't understand, so please enlighten me.

Seller writes it is african, made with use of SNAKE skin, received from CALCUTTA which is in INDIA! dated 1870.

If received from India then it couldn't be a copy
If made with use of snake skin, then not necessary African piece
Obviously... until I missed something.

Thanks

I am wondering whether the 'chevron' pattern on the point might help find it's origins
