very good kothimora

[John Powell]

A very nice example of a "palace" or "court" kothimora. Probably late 19thc with all gold furniture and gold detail along the spine of a budhume blade. 18.5" with a rhino grip but sadly the back pockets and knives are missing.

More luxury versians!Rhino horn included! Is that a early brass bolster, I see?

The bolster is gold. Rhino horn could almost be considered standard on this type kothimora.

Rhino horn as standerd! What a life they must have lived! & Gold bolsters? Amazing!
