Hello Chregu

I think this is the center of the Ottoman Empire (today's Turkey) and I think this is the 18th century

Hello Turkoman.khan

Thanks a lot for your help
I am fascinated by the brown jade handle, which is rarely seen. I still have a curved dagger with an identical handle. but this is currently in an exhibition.
