    Description

    Offered is what I believe to be a Pattern 1837 Danish Infantry Officer’s sword and scabbard as pictured.
    The sword itself is quite nice with much gilt remaining on its finely rendered/intricately cast & engraved hilt.
    The grip is formed with heavy gilt wire wrapped over a wood core.
    The hilt and guard are tight.
    The detent button on the hinged side of the guard is present but frozen.
    The moveable guard articulates freely and is wiggle free.
    The blade is marked “G. WOLLNER & CO. BERLIN” as pictured and it retains its felt washer.
    The blade is in nice condition with minimal corrosion.
    It appears to be plated and has a fuller on both sides.
    It is etched with marital drum and flag motiff’s from the end of the ricasso to about the middle of the blade.
    The scabbard is missing its drag and the leather body is deteriorated somewhat as should be expected for its age.
    The throat mount is configured for a frog so the scabbard apparently was never furnished with a middle mount.
    I have a couple other swords listed presently so take a look.
    I’d keep this one but my interests lie elsewhere.
    I will combine shipping on multiple purchases.
    Buyer pays .00 shipping via USPS Priority Mail.
    Good luck and Happy Bidding.
