Burmese Dha, silver, tribal knife

An original Burmese Shan, golden triangle knife. Blade of iron. Sheet and part of hilt is plated with thin silver that in places have nice filigree work. Hilt of bone. With red cotton rope knit over the top part of the sheet. This nice knife has been used in daily life probably after being inaugurated in some sort of ceremony. It is old ca. 1940-60, and has taken some beating over the years. Overall length: 37 cm. 150 USD, add 40 usd for shipping & funds transfer.
