Yes, if items are reworked in new era.
But if they are reworked in period, that is other story.
Also I dont see any traces of polishing ray skin on hadle?
Skin on these handle is take from bigger adriatick sea ray exsample, (That's why the wheelbase is a little bigger.), and the final tanning is very well preserved. There is, however, fading at the edges where it comes in contact with the metal and stress ouside condition.
If is skin polished, there will be black remains on handle wire, without any fading on ray skin.
