POMMEL HANDLE PREMIUM: This premium mixed-medium specimen features a highly ornate, flared metal swagger knob handle decorated with an intricate, hand-formed 360-degree repoussé leaf and foliage pattern. Features an unmonogrammed flat crown. Crown has small horizontal dent.
SHAFT & CARVING DETAILS: Features deeply defined, continuous hand-carved narrative relief panels running seamlessly down the premium fire-scorched hardwood shaft. Displays high-tier national and harvest iconography: 1. The classic Mexican National Coat of Arms showing a highly detailed Golden Eagle perched with outstretched wings, clutching a rattlesnake firmly in its beak. 2. Narrative profile figures of traditional Mexican peasants/campesinos wearing wide-brimmed sombreros while carrying baskets of harvested fruit on their backs. 3. A sharp rising sunburst symbol right below the metal collar, representing fertility and a new dawn. 4. Heavy geometric cross-hatch basketweave tooling extending completely down to the flat-cut raw wood base edge.
CONDITION: Outstanding antique condition. The wood shaft remains 100% straight, sturdy, and rigid with no deep vertical fractures or loose grain splits. Carving lines remain incredibly sharp and clean. The metal pommel cap shows gorgeous dark age character in the valleys with a beautiful bright luster on the raised leaf highlights.
