Not ethnographic, but a nice piece anyhow.
It certainly has some age... George V ?
Not a replica, but the genuine thing. It sure was part of an officer's dress. Made by an unusual sword maker. Blade polish finish over 99% present. Deep inset proof mark. Etching is top quality, with perfect Navy symbols and Royal crest. Grip ray skin is all there, only showing signs of hand sweat. Guard with all gold finish present. Original sword knot is intact. Genuine leather scabbard and mountings in good condition, as can be seen.
I can try and take better pictures of some detail, if required.
Price 300 Euros.
