Very Fine St. Etienne Silver Mounted, Carved and Engraved Flintlock Pocket Pistol with Eagle Head Pommel

This diminutive pistol is signed "A St Etienne" on the lock and was manufactured around the late 18th century. The cannon style barrel is smoothbore and unsighted. The furniture is all silver and has various cast/engraved designs including a detailed eagle's head on the pommel and a boat on the left sideplate. The stock has fine floral carving behind the barrel tang.

ConditionVery fine overall with mostly bright iron, a few small patches of light pitting, aged patina on the silver, detailed engraving and carving, and minimal wear. Mechanically excellent. A very attractive French pocket pistol from the era of their revolution.
