Country Group:
Antique Tibetan Iron (sky iron?) Phurba with red polychrome. At some other point someone tried to sharpen it a bit. Not as finely cast as some, but has an incredibly powerful feeling to it. Unusual sheen to the iron alloy-possibly made of "sky iron" (gathered up small meteorites melted down to make Phurba)Size is 8.25 inches long. Probably 19thC.
