octagonal-to-round section secured by pins, the locks of classical russian form engraved with foliate scrollwork and signed in cyrillic with the maker\u2019s name (iванъ полiнъ). the stocks are of richly figured hardwood, carved with rococo-style scrolls and further enhanced with engraved silver wire inlay along the grips. brass mounts feature engraved spurred pommels, side plates, and trigger guards, the latter with elegant scrolling terminals. both pistols retain their original steel ramrods and exhibit the refined workmanship and balanced proportions characteristic of high-quality tula production intended for aristocratic or courtly use. the pair is notable for its strong state of preservation, close matching throughout, and clear association with one of tula\u2019s documented 18th-century masters, making it a rare survival of imperial russian civilian arms. \n the craftsmanship of the tula armourers reached its height in the second half of the 18th century, when
