Five Indian swords, richly decorated and of exceptional quality, form the centrepiece of our forthcoming display. Nearly a metre in length and adorned with intricate enamel and goldwork, these rare objects offer a unique window into 18th- and 19th-century Lucknow, once a vibrant centre of power, artistry and cross-cultural exchange.

Opening on 26 November, plan your visit today.
