About this work

Brand mark with a more or less round handle with a rough surface. On the front of the handle the mark is attached to the base of the V (of the VOC mark). The handle runs through the grip and has a spherical end. The grip is baluster-shaped (slender) with a spherical end and a disc-shaped side on the handle. Around the disc is a brass band with a mark.
