A steel tulwar, late 18th to early 19th century, India, the serrated steel blade with an engraved motif, the grip of typical form,blade 70.2cm longoverall 81.5cm longProvenance: Formerly in the collection of Mark Dineley and then acquired directly from his son, Peter Dineley, who died in 2018.Mark Dineley (1901-1975) was the owner of Bapty & Co., the theatrical and film prop specialists in arms and armour, and spent his lifetime building a vast collection, not only of arms and armour, but also ethnographica, curios and Chinese, Nepalese and Buddhist art. In the interwar period, he gained the nickname of 'One-Pound Dineley', having put the word about to all antique dealers, runners and pickers that he would happily pay one pound for any item which he had never seen before. This resulted in queues of vendors willing to part with all manner of objects and led to some of his most magnificent acquisitions. His son, Peter, inherited the Bapty props company - which remains a leader in its field - along with his father's unique collection. On Peter's subsequent death in 2018 some of the collection was sold off.Shipping Disclaimer: Buyers must be aware of their country’s shipping and import policies regarding guns, knives, swords, and other offensive weapons prior to purchase.
