Early 19th Century French Gilt Bronze and Mother of Pearl Ceremonial Sword
Located in Fayetteville, AR
This early nineteenth century ceremonial dress sword features a gilt bronze guard with the profile of Louis XVIII flanked by fleur de lys. Presumably owned by a Frenchman sympathetic to the monarchy after the fall of Napoleon Bonaparte, the hilt additionally features lions, stars, and palmettes. The grip is faced with mother of pearl. In the early 19th century, swords like these were only ever worn by noblemen or gentlemen, and typically for stately events or High Society functions. Typical of a ceremonial small sword worn by gentlemen of the period, the blade, which measures 31 inches in length, takes on a triangular shape if looked at from above. This shape denotes its practical function if ever used, as a dueling sword...
