Central Peru, Ca 1400 to 1500 CE. Inca copper tumi - but in this case, this is not your typical "ceremonial" implement. This tumi was manufactured to be used - from cutting coca leaves to performing complex surgery such as trephining. The edge on this beauty is still quite sharp - 500+ years after it was made. 4-3/16"W x 4"H. Intact and choice with custom stand. PROVENANCE: Ex-private Los Angeles, CA Collection Authenticity Guaranteed! |
