This is a magnificent example, maker marked for Weyersberg, Solingen, of an Argentinian army officer's sabre. A typical example of the German export drive in the 19th and early 20th century to successfully capture the bulk of the South American arms market, both in swords and firearms. Red glass eyes to lion hilt.
