1788 Patt. British Yeomanry Cavalry Officer’s
Sword, Sold |
A scarce 1788 pattern British yeomanry cavalry officer's sword
with ivory grip.
 
Once carried by a member of the British gentry, this 1788P yeomany
cavalry officer's sabre is rare. The 27 3/4 inch blade with almost
kilij style clipped point, as was fashionable with many at the time,
is rusted (stable rust) in places but still sound and firm in the
grip. The original ivory grip has several cracks as is to be expected,
but firm. A lovely sword. Further pictures available upon request.
