The 32 inch blade is in very good condition for its age with some patina patches towards the point but not too many. Blade firm in the hilt. The brass hilt in good order. The silver metal twisted wire is complete and firm. The scabbard has lost length, so is shorter than the blade, so the sword does not sheath fully.

This is a lot of blue and gilt etch on a good condition sword for only £? (too late, now sold). Please quote item reference number AF58 (1133). Further / full sized pictures available upon request.
