Dear Raffi, Thank you for contacting Mearto with your appraisal inquiry. My sincere apologies for the delay with the appraisal. The presented object appears to be a Saudi Arabian Saif presentation sword with unknown measurements. It has the typical handle and blade shape of Arabian Saif swords and is used for ceremonial purposes. This piece was made in the second half of the 20th century out of iron or steel and brass or yellow cast metal. Comparable objects were recently offered and sold on the international auction market. This piece is in good condition and there is no serious damage visible in the images provided. A fair market estimation would be between 50 to 100 USD. This estimate is based on actual recent past recorded auction sales of comparable items. Retail "asking prices" can be higher and may vary. With kind regards, George
