Beautiful workmanship - very special! With kind regards. Peter
Very nice and ornamental. Quite a collector's item. how would the guns be held?
@ Ingrid: I corrected/completed the caption. Dimensions of the item: about 10 x 10 cm. With kind greetings, JM.
Thank you Jean-Marie Criel, this makes more sense, a pouch for the gun powder, the lid ids the upper part. A pity there is not another photo to show the back and its side to get an idea how much it would carry. No doubt it is a beautiful item and most attracktive to imagine it slipped onto a belt. Gr. Ingrid.
