Beautiful engraving on this piece, with most of the stock inlaid with large pieces of ivory.
I normally wait for met-armsarmor to make their own post, but I couldn’t find item 23197 on their blog.
They have a massive amount of images on their site, and I advise anyone interested in historical art, arms and armour to browse there.
