Two antique pistols with brown wooden grips and silver metal components. The grips have an intricate design, with a leaf-like pattern etched into them. The metal parts, including the barrels, locks, and triggers, are silver in color. Each pistol features a flintlock mechanism on top of the barrel near the handle. The handles are curved downward, with a small ring near the base for a wrist strap. The butt ends of the handles are rounded and have a decorative silver cap. The background is plain white, with a slight shadow underneath each pistol.
