This is a pair of antique screw off barrel, folding trigger, percussion muff pistols, probably made in Belgium in the 1850's.  Each pistol measures 1 11/16" long overall with a .558" long barrel.  This is the first and only set I have ever seen with wood grips.  Most of these have either ivory or gold metal engraved grips.  The grips are flat sided, not rounded as is usually seen.  The backstraps of both are marked R NART N, which I'm guessing is the maker.  The barrels have a round bore with four grooves cut into the muzzle 90 degrees apart so at to engage the barrel key on the supplied combination bullet mold/tool.  The outside of the barrels are plain.  The frames are engraved and look to be silver plated.  The tool is a bullet mold, barrel wrench, and nipple wrench, and looks to be silver plated.  The powder flask looks to be cast silver.  It measures 3/4" in diameter and 1/4" thick, and has a cast silver top attached by a very fine chain.  The case has a hinged top and is lined in a dark brown velvet.  The hinges and clasp are very finely made and look to be silver.  This exact cased set was pictured on the cover of the Fall 1975 Abercrombie & Fitch catalog, and offered for sale on the inside front cover for $2,750.00.  The catalog cover photo shows there to be a small screwdriver in the set which has since, unfortunately, has been lost.  One of the pistols seems to have a broken mainspring, the other functions perfectly.
