Yes, sure, not the best condition example of the scarce model 1855 Imperial Russian Naval Officer’s Sword, but if it were, it would be worth many thousands. The back piece of the hilt / guard is missing the final section, the grip is a fairly rudimentary replacement, and the once fine etching is a very very feint memory, but still……..
The 29 1/4 inch blade is very aged, some etching / markings just visible, a steady patina, firm in the hilt. The 3 bar brass hilt with typical Russian angled pommel is in quite good condition. The grip is a later basic replacement, but quite good.
m1855 Imperial Russian naval officer’s sword are very scarce, so £500 for this one is a great deal. Please quote item reference ZW27. Further / full sized images available upon request. Box 2105 92 x 13 x 13 (1.218).
