Salonpistole 19 century

[antiques and hobby]

So called Salonpistole from the 19th century; in decent condition; length of circa 38 cm.
I would like additional information about the origin and the manufacturer?
Thank you in advance.

I would say French or Belgian pistol in 6mm Bosquette of the Le Faucheux type. Mid 19th century. FLOBERT Pistol, of course! My mistake! A classic.

Cheers,
Emile

I made a stupid mistake. It is of course a Flobert pistol.

These pistols were designed by a Frenchman; Flobert and manufactured in several countries. Particularly in Belgium by their thousands in the mid nineteenth century.

Look for a mark shaped like an oval with the capitals ELG (epreuve Liege = Liege proof bank). That would make it a Belgian product.
