Description from the seller

Decorative sword with an oriental-style sheath, probably a modern reproduction of a traditional weapon from the Middle East or Central Asia

This decorative sword evokes the style of traditional weapons from the Middle East and Central Asia, regions where swords with long, slender blades and richly decorated scabbards were symbols of status and military prowess. The decorations on the scabbard, which include geometric and floral motifs in applied metal, are typical of Islamic and Persian craftsmanship of the 18th-19th centuries.

These modern reproductions are highly valued by collectors of decorative weapons, by enthusiasts of military history, and by those who love Eastern art and craftsmanship. They are often used as decorative pieces to add an exotic and elegant touch to interiors, and are particularly popular among those who collect objects related to Middle Eastern and Asian cultures. Their charm lies in the combination of historical aesthetics and decorative value, making them perfect for thematic displays or personal collections.
