About the original sword in this thread, barquillas were popular in Spain 1750-1780, both for infantry and dragoon officers swords, but I believe yours is more related to cup hilts at the end of XVIIIth century. That pommel with its screw is typical of Portuguese swords with German blades. And ivory/bone is often found as grip material in those cup hilts.
