Class: Antique
Description:

Circa 1855. The six barrels feature a fine Damascus pattern and each barrel is numbered. Marked "MARIETTE / BREVETTE" on the front grip strap. Has a ring trigger. The frame and backstrap are floral scroll engraved. Fitted with two-piece ivory grips.

Rating Definition:

Very good plus. Overall the metal surfaces have a smooth dark gray patina with some mild pitting on the frame. The barrels retain most of the Damascus pattern. The grips are very fine with some age lines, mostly on the left panel and a couple light chips. The engraving is clear and crisp.
