About this work

Guisarme with an octagonal wooden staff. The two iron lips are nailed to the staff. Between the shaft and the blade, a copper connecting ring. The engravings consist of two half-portraits of a man and a woman shown in profile. The man wears a hat and has steep hair falling to the shoulders. The heart below him is pierced by a large arrow and a small one. The heart below the woman has a 'stalk' above it. Here only a large arrow is depicted. Marked.
