This is another rare and original 18 C. steel ingot from India, made of wootz and coming right out of the crucible ready to be traded and forged into a wootz blade. Luckily it survived and is up for sale. 1¾ inches in diameter, 1 1/4 inch high, in a ball sector shape and about 300 Grams weight. A small area on the side was polished and etched to show the wootz structure. Unique piece for the weapon collector, steel researcher or blade smith expert
