Imitation of an Arabian parade spear with a tapered rosewood shaft, lacquered. Beneath the point are cuffs made of silver or copper sheet with a scale pattern or in the form of a bulging ring with a notched pattern. The spear comes with a wooden scabbard covered with thin textile. Due to the description as "Arabic" and imitation in the inventory, it is not possible to determine the specific country of origin. The spear was a gift from General Richard Erlenbusch (1863 - 1937) to the Gewerbemuseum Ulm in 1923. Erlenbusch donated or loaned various collections to the Gewerbemuseum over a number of years. In particular, these were military objects, which he presumably acquired during his combat missions in France and Italy during the First World War. It is not clear where he obtained the non-European objects from. However, they came to the museum after the end of Erlenbusch's military career (1920 and 1923).
