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.

testimonials

I have in the last six months inherited my late father Alan Swain's police memorabilia collection along with much paperwork receipts etc. I would like to pass on to you my thanks for such good dealership with my father going back to the late 80s and well into the 1990s.
