I inherited this cross that looks like it fits onto a staff and know
very little about it. I found a note that mentioned medieval time
period. I can't find any pictures of anything like it online. Any info
would be appreciated.
I have several old, poor quality swords that I can't identify. I think
they came from overseas but I am not even sure about that. Could anyone
help me determine what I have and what it might be worth? Thanks
Mr. Sadigh from the Sadigh Gallery confirmed that these are Ethiopian
crosses. You were exactly right. Thanks for your help everyone. I will
be putting these up on ebay shortly.
Ethiopian Coptic cross staff topper photos do look alot like what I
have, however none of the pictures I looked at portray people on the
toppers and so that makes me wonder. I have not found a better
explaination of what these are though so unless Mr...
No help from Christies. They just basically said they were not
interested. I am not sure why unless they just don't deal in that kind
of thing. Next try is the sadigh gallery.
I already tried Bonham's. They were not interested in selling or helping
to identify. I just tried Christies. I will let ya'll know how that
works out. Also I probably need to call The Sadigh Gallery in New York.
I do recall that Dad used to by thing...
