Title Prussian Cuirassier officer's sword, 1854 model
Nationality German
Period c 1880
Sold

This sword with a brass hilt in the French style has a plain blade with a single fuller for most of its length, the last 25cms or so with double fullers. The good nickel silver scabbard has several dents. There are no maker marks and the blade retains the bulk of its factory polish.

This sword would have been used in the Prussian army in the closing years of the 19th century and the opening years of the 20th.
