Title 1822 pattern Royal Artillery officer's sword
Nationality British
Period c 1914
Sold

This sword has a superb Wilkinson blade with all its factory finish and is marred only by an incompetently executed backstrap, which bears only a faint resemblance to the original. The nickel silver finish on the scabbard and the rest of the hilt is a/f, but has been polished to an acceptable standard.

It has the classic large fighting blade normally associated with pre-1914 material.
