Centurion will offer for sale a Highly Decorated 18th C. Indo-Persian Armor Set, along with a Detailed Indo-Persian Gold Dhal Separ Shield. Both Indo-Persian Armor lots were purchased from Robert Hales, noted arms dealer and author of Islamic and Oriental Arms and Armour, in London in 1999.
Both of the lots are of high quality, being beautifully chiseled steel with generous gold accents, allowing the intricate design work to show nicely in relief.
The Indo-Persian Armor pieces are great collector pieces. They would complement any collection or also stand-alone as attractive displays.
