Description
MESFIOUA culture, High Atlas, Morocco. Iron, silver, yellow copper, wood, aged patina. Two antique, slightly curved ‘Koumya’ daggers with scabbards featuring ‘peacock’s tail’ pommels. The ‘koumya’ is much more than a simple dagger; it is a true symbol of identity and social status in Morocco, not merely a weapon but also an accessory to men’s attire. Lengths: 39 cm and 40.5 cm. (The blade of one of the daggers is stuck in the scabbard).
