"Ottoman Kard - Türkiye"
This Ottoman kard features a finely curved, patinated metal scabbard, adorned with an elegant gilded plant frieze design along its entire length. The cylindrical handle, also made of metal, flares slightly towards the top. An ornate brass ring, with a fastening ring, marks the junction between the scabbard and the handle. The whole evokes an elegant, sober and functional piece.
