A fine pair of Ottoman Turkish Flintlock Pistols, finished with stunning brass inlay underneath the barrel toward the muzzle end of each gun. The brass detail also features across each handle, toward the butt end, making them a superbly decorative piece and a fantastic talking point. The length of the barrels determines their age and provenance, an elegant design characteristic of earlier pistols, where later models became shorter, as tastes changed.
Period: 18th Century (c.1760) Measurements: L45cm x H17cm (on stand pictured)
Please note: Inlay on one handle slightly raised but intact, as pictured.
