Acutally I don't think it was altered. The top and bottom parts are low silver with the tarnish taken off.

Well that's cool. The reason I thought the center piece may have been added, is that it's a different metal, has different type joints where soldered (I think), and the okir work looked different. But that's why I posted it here to get your opinion Jose. You're the man when it comes to silver work and okir!

Thanks,
Steve

i like that blade shape, wish i could find more moro stuff over here. shipping from the states is outrageous.

anyhow, it reminds me of this newly made one i picked up a while back

not in the same league tho.

I'm honored, thank you Steve. I do think you are right in that the middle part may be nickel silver - not unusual (just polish it up )

Here is my gunong for design comparison and the reason why I say the same artist.
