Recade

Description

Manche en bois noir. Sur la tête arrondie, à l’arrière figure une plaque de métal allongée. L’extrémité de la soie de cette pièce traverse le manche et est repliée par martelage. La lame principale est allongée et s’épanouit en forme de tulipe. La partie la plus étroite est ornée de la façade d’une église surmontée d’une croix sur les deux faces. Le haut est incisé dans le métal. Les deux anneaux qui permettent le blocage de la lame dans la tête du bois sont en laiton. De part et d’autre de la tête figurent des yeux dans un cabochon allongé.
