Can anyone I.D. these revolver grips?
Hello!
I have this set of revolver grips that are really nice and somewhat ornate. I have been trying to I.D. them for quite awhile now. Has anyone ever seen a grip like this? Any help would be appreciated.
Stay Safe!

Many of the late - 19th century revolvers were fitted with gutta-percha grips, as it was a natural thermoplastic and easy to mold into distinct ornate designs, the cheapest method of dressing up a handgun. Someone who collects a lot of these guns might find a match.

Style and shape look like medium sized 32/38 s&w revlover. Possibly a bulldog, by Hopkins&Allen

They are for a Fochel and Clark Pioneer 32 rimfire revolver, the top scallops match so they would have made them for another revolver.

Thorhammer,
You are a fountain of knowledge. That you for your I.D. of these grips. I have searched high and low for the maker.
Stay safe!
