Fine American Eagle Head Cavalry Sword, 1800's
Solid metal guard with an American eagle head pommel entirely made of metal. Bone carved grip with linear incised designs, patinated over time and use. Guard is arched with five bulb details in ascending to descending order. Blade is finely etched and a technique known as "bluing" was used to emphasize the fine details. Bluing of weapons and firearm barrels was common practice dating back to the eighteenth and nineteenth century, and took fine skill to achieve even heat to color specific sections. Size overall 33 1/2" L, blade 28" L
Condition: Patina and wear commensurate with age and use throughout.
