Hi,
this just finished on eBay.....unfortunately not mine...my larger bid failed to register

.

A very nice, chiselled decorated spear which appears to be wootz ...a vague pattern seems evident. I would be extremely interested in other opinions, I feel it sold well under price. Any ideas as to age, use (seller suggested Elephant spear) etc would be greatly appreciated. If a formite bought this and wants to start their own thread please let me know.
