Entirely chiseled with silver wire. A great and magnificent meticulous work. The barrel is also sculpted, as well as the hammer and even the cap representing a cobra. The lock is engraved with a Russian first name, possibly the signature of a Russian or Georgian king. To be deciphered by an expert. Item for a very good collector, who loves history and who loves to do his research to determine exactly who this beautiful weapon belonged to. Take a good look at all the photos for all the details of the sculptures, silver thread, the gold badge, inscriptions. Functional but very old mechanism, the parts are old to be able to shoot. with that it would be a shame if a part breaks because it is very difficult to find. Pistol in very good condition for its age, very good conservation. Very rare ! With a great story behind it.
