    Description

    Antique Tuareg ceremonial arm dagger with scarce red copper incised blade and embossed leather grip and sheath.  This style blade is generally associated with the Tuareg tribes of Morocco and Algeria and is rarely seen in copper.  9" double edged blade with overall length of 14 3/4".  Style, aging, and manufacture are indicative of the 1900-1940 period.  We are selling this for a 93 years young lady who we have helped move to assisted living.  She states this item was collected by her husband when they lived in Africa in the 1960's and was part of his multicultural weapons display in their Tucson AZ security/gun store.  In excellent antique condition with no repairs or restoration.  Thanks for looking!
