Pistole in cofanetto
La consuetudine di collocare le armi all’interno di un cofanetto era motivata principalmente dalla possibilità
di un facile trasporto. Se si trattava di un corredo da viaggio, per esempio, venivano curate le dimensioni
dell’astuccio e degli scomparti che ospitavano l’arma e gli accessori. Un corredo da tiro o da duello, a parte il
fatto di potere ospitare due pistole, era ancora più curato nella dotazione degli accessori e poteva contenere
anche la pinza fondipalle, la fustella per le pezzuole e alcune parti di ricambio come viti, luminelli o molle
dell’acciarino. Il grado di eleganza e di finitura dei cofanetti, commissionati direttamente all’armaiolo di
fiducia e realizzati quasi sempre in legno pregiato, quali il mogano, potevano variare in funzione del grado
sociale del proprietario o della fama dello stesso armaiolo. Il fascino e l’eleganza delle pistole in cofanetto
rimangono ancora oggi immutati: un motivo in più per collezionarle, per poterle esporre e raccontare antiche
pagine di storia armiera.
From the beginning of firearms history it was customary to store the gun in a fitted case which equalled the
quality of the gun itself. Such a case protected the gun during rough travel conditions as well as providing
safe storage in the home or campground. Cases provided a protective snug fit for the gun plus places for
various other items such as bullets, powder flask, caps container, oilcan, screwdriver, nipple wrench and
other items required by the owner. Some cases made for twin duelling pistols could have extra items which
would be needed during a duel such as bullet mould, patches, hollow punch and spare parts such as screws,
nipples and lock springs. The cases elegance and their finishing grade was usually ordered directly from the
gunsmith and often made with expensive wood and would vary according to the social grade of the owner
or by the gunsmith’ s fame. The glamour and elegance of displaying pistols in cases are still immutable: one
reason more to collect them, to display them and to show viewers the antique gunsmithing history.
