Description:

This unique revolver design was patented by D. D. Oury in 1909 and they were manufactured by multiple Belgian firms, mostly out of Liege. It is equipped with a concealed hammer, folding trigger, and hinged silver plated grip featuring relief vine motifs. The only markings on this example are "16" on various parts. The Le Novo Revolver makes for a very compact package, measuring only 3 1/2 inches long and 1 1/2 inches tall when closed.

Rating Definition:

Very fine, retaining 85% original blue finish and 90% original case colors with limited handling marks and a couple light pin hole pits on the rear of the frame. The grip is excellent retaining the vast majority of the plating with some light high edge wear. Mechanically excellent.
