A very high quality Burmese dha with very high silver content (92%+) – see silver acid test result further below (blood red indicates over 92% silver content).
The 18 3/16 inch steel blade is in very good condition and firm in the hilt. The silver sheet (over wood) and ivory hilt is very good, some age hairline cracks to the ivory. The silver sheet over wood scabbard is equally good. Animal / hunting scenes are well engraved to hilt and scabbard. The dha sheathes and draws well.
An exceptional example. These sell for $2000+ on specialist sites, but this one can be yours for just (was) £1000, now £800 . Please quote item reference T09. Further / full sized images upon request. Box 0724-1m (1.570).
