This video explores the concept of "the gun as art" by comparing two decorative firearms from different eras, both produced by or for Tiffany & Co. The first is a 1870s cartridge conversion Colt revolver, noted for its Nimschke engraving and a silver-plated "Mexican Eagle" grip. The second is a modern-production Colt 1860 Army, designed by Tiffany for the US Historical Society and manufactured by Andrew Bourbon. The presenter discusses how artistic appeal in firearms has evolved between these two periods, offering a visual and stylistic comparison of embellished firearms.
