Title Prussian artillery sabre, 1854 pattern
Nationality German
Period 1905
Sold

This sabre has a leather grip and iron guard marked '4.AF.2.4', medium dark patinated. The blade is dated 1905 and the edge has evidently been ground on a grindstone for field service. The scabbard has been polished (probably wire mopped) and has scattered medium pitting throughout the surface. A reasonable example of its type.

The parcel has arrived - at the time you indicated.

The sword lives up to expectations and looks even better than on the website. The detail and etching is superb.

Thanks so much for your help and the extra information.
