Title Sukhela with 16th century Venetian blade
Nationality Indian
Period c 1800
Sold

An unmarked blade, probably from Belluno, typical of the type that would have been carried in a clam shell hilt sword. These blades were exported via Goa to the Indian sub-continent and would have mounted up in their own hilts through succeeding centuries.
