This is a very rare and high quality Highlanders pistol and is engraved overall. Marshall & sons were in business at 87 George Street, Edinburgh around c.1780.

Flat sided typical all steel grips engraved with motifs to each side and a plain central panel for the owners crest. Showing little sign of use or wear.

This is the type of pistol that would have been carried by a wealthy Scottish Highlander for personal protection and at special occasions whilst wearing the full Highland dress, during the 18th & 19th centuries. Action in good working condition. King George 4th of England was painted wearing this style of pistol when he visited the Royal Highland pageant in Edinburgh at the invitation of Sir Walter Scott in c.1822.
