Engraved and Carved Dutch Costera Signed Flintlock Pistol

The lock plate has engraved warriors at the rear and ahead of the hammer. The lock plate is also signed "COSTERA UTRECHT" below one of the warriors. The hammer features a light floral scroll engraving. The top of the barrel is flat and is signed "COSTERA UTRECHT". A wide band is engraved at the barrel breech followed by a nearly 3 inch long wedge of chiseled scrollwork. A light engraving flanks the blade front sight. The barrel tang is lightly engraved. Chiseled work is also featured on the trigger guard. The buttcap has a floral engraving and a high relief chiseled grotesque mask. The cut-out side plate has a floral design. The trigger guard tang is script marked "No. 4". The full length stock has a high relief floral carving around the barrel tang and ramrod channel and a horn forend cap. The ramrod has a horn tip.

ConditionGood. The pistol has a bright appearance showing mild pitting. The stock is very good with a small minor crack near the lock plate and some scattered minor handling marks. Mechanically fine.
