A very fine quality and seldom encountered bronze age period short stabbing sword.
This item which dates to circa 1800-1200BC , is in stunning allover condition.
Of good solid style and form this is a real show stopper that would grace any collection.
The wood or bone inserts to the grip have decayed in antiquity.
A fabulous patination to the bronze as shown.
Ex. Private collection formed in the late 1960s.
Size 42.0 CM in Length.
As with all of my antiquities and coins this item comes complete with a certificate of authenticity.
