Lot 84

A VERY RARE DECCANI SWORD, LATE 16TH/17TH CENTURY with unusually long curved fullered blade made in the Firanghi style, double-edged towards the point, punched with Bikaner Armoury mark at the forte, integral steel hilt formed of a broad figure-of-eight shaped plate at the base and large disc shaped pommel with faceted bud-shaped finial 108cm; 42 1/2in blade Provenance The Bikaner Arsenal, Rajasthan The blade is unusual in that it splits into three at the tang to provide the ridged upper part of the basket guard. This detail can be seen on a small number of swords with a similar provenance in the Ganga Government Museum, Bikaner. This group was captured by Raja Anup Singh of Bikaner who was present with his Rajputs as part of the Mughal army besieging Adoni, the last fortress to hold out in the Mughal campaign against Bijapur state which fell in 1689. The Raja took his booty home to Bikaner where it was inscribed with the word Adoni. The arms in the armoury included weapons captured from Vijayanagara at the battle of Talikota in 1565 and subsequently. See R. Elgood 2004, p. 97.
