The Topkapi Dagger of the Palace of Light and Gold

Jewelry is seen in many forms today. Rings, necklaces, bracelets, ear rings, tearas, and many other forms. The most beautiful of these forms of jewelry, in my opinion, are daggers and swords. There are many different jewel encrusted, gilded weapons, all very beautiful, like the Indian morghuls dagger. The most beautiful dagger in my opinion the Topkapi dagger of the Ottoman Empire made in 1746 for Nadir Shah. The dagger never made it to Nadir Shah; …

…made the dagger even more widely known than it already was. The Topkapi dagger is a beautiful piece of art. It is an example of fine workmanship in gold, jewels, weaponry, and in watch making. It is one of the best examples of Ottoman art and workmanship, as well as proof that the Ottoman Empire was very great in its time of power. It created one of the most beautiful and priceless works of art.
