The stock of this Balkan pistol is decoratively carved throughout but especially at the grip which is inlaid with silver in swirling and zigzag patterns that almost resemble fingerprints at the part closest to the pommel. The pommel itself is of brass with an angular conical point surrounded by petals. The lockplate is intricately engraved with beautiful filigree work. The barrel bears some faint engraving that has been worn over time and is bound to the stock via a wrapped brass wire near the muzzle.

Dimensions: L: 18 3/4 in., (48 cm.)
