- Blade & Scabbard: The sword features a single-edged, curved blade housed in an elaborately decorated scabbard. The scabbard appears to be covered in fine silver or silver-gilt work, likely featuring Koftgiri (wire inlay), repoussé (hammered relief), or chased foliate and calligraphy patterns.
- Hilt Design: The hilt includes a distinctive pommel, often shaped like an animal head (such as a lion or horse) or a traditional rounded "eared" grip.
- Cultural Context: Similar pieces have been attributed to Ottoman (Turkish), Persian, or Indian (Mughal/Rajput) origins, dating between the 18th and 19th centuries.
- Materials: High-end examples often utilize Damascus or watered steel for the blade and may be studded with gemstones like rubies or emeralds in more lavish versions
- Dimensions: 37in L
