A 1600th century slab gun with a conical piped finish changed from flint lock in the 1800s. It is provided with decorated whole stock consisting of brass inlays and enamel in the form of floral ornaments. The gift of brass has a comprehensive engraving that ends with a face-like piston button. Around the piston button runs a letter frieze showing “NANNAN.” The lock and barrel of steel have leaf-like engraving. The sideboard consists of a cast/engraved brass plate. The brass thumb plate has a plant ornament, and that the housekeeper is made of engraved brass. A decorated lace trough is found in the rear of the cargo bay.
