No it is a good honest piece. I do not meet many people that appreciate a well made piece. Remember that 1st piece I bought many years ago. I paid 250 dollars which was 2 weeks wages back then. I wish I could buy pieces for that now

Given the prices asked in Portugal for old arms, i don't think the cost of this piece was so bad ... 300 Euros.
When you feel like, please send me by email a couple close up pictures of the barrel bands; i would like to see how they made the knots. I know yours are rattan and mine are in leather, bu still i would like to see them. If you wish to do so, of course. Fernando |
