1st Empire infantry officer's saber.
These sabers were worn by all junior officers in line regiments.
They were in common use, with slight variations of varying degrees of elegance and luxury.
Solingen blade, with low arrow and single hollow edge, blued one-third and decorated with floral motifs highlighted in gold, 75.5 cm long.
Brass mounting.
Rounded hilt branch, whose scrolled top fits into the cap.
Quillon curved downwards, ending in a "melon rib" button.
Shuttle-like mumps.
Short-tailed cap with rounded cutout and line decoration.
Finely checkered ebony handle, with a very slight crack on the front.
Varnished black leather stock with two line-decorated fittings. Button hilt.
This saber is in good used condition with a beautiful patina.
The blade has retained its original polish and some of its blue, with traces of gilding in the hollows.
The scabbard has retained its varnish.
The fittings are undamaged.
