Very Nice Rare Rumanian Naval Officer Sword
This is a rare and seldom encountered Rumanian Naval Officer’s Sword which dates from the World War II Era. It is mounted with a very nice slightly curved blade that measures 31 1/8 inches in length. The blade is beautifully etched on either side and remains in wonderful, original condition with just some minor surface blemishes and is well marked by the maker Carl Eickhorn Solingen on the ricasso. The guard wears an intricately detailed birdhead pommel with the accentuating detailing extending along the backstrap, and is wonderfully enhanced with a lovely floral motif that frames a roped anchor upon the face of the guard. The guard has also survived in beautiful condition and with much of the original gold wash still brightly present. The hard composite hilt remains very nice as well with the original twisted wire wrap tight and secure. The very attractive scabbard is dressed with beautifully coordinating fittings and although the leather finish is a bit scuffed, does remain in very nice serviceable condition. Overall measuring 37 7/8 inches in length. Be sure to add me to your favorites list. Check out my other items.
