Islamic Weapons at V&A Museum

Thank you, Jim
I am not aware of any recent V&A publications. The collection, of course, has many other fascinating items, and the metalware objects are particularly fascinating, and it certainly would be nice to have a comprehensive catalogue or book on the subject.

Just a few more pics; there's never too much of good things ...

Very nice but I think if you keep going my 'puter will short circuit!

I've learned to use a napkin.

Great pictures Alex, thank you.

Wonderful pictures! Thank you very much. If you have more to share, my computer can take it, though I may suffer overload

Very impressive, and thanks for sharing. I have a copy of the book by Anthony North of the V & A displays, but by the looks of this lot, there needs to be another book published!

Alex,

Thank you for the very nice picture, and the ’night mode’ is an excellent idea. Not many would have thought of it – at least I didn’t when I was at David’s Collection last month.
