Light cavalry sabre. Dedicated blade "Albert Serillant(?) Mal des Logis Chef. Souvenir du 5 ème escadron. 1er Janvier 1885".

  1. Out of stock

Flat-backed blade with a fuller, engraved with a long dedication; the proper name is difficult to read.
It was a nice gift to start the year!
Backes et fils logo on the heel.
The scabbard is heavily oxidized in the middle, but it has well protected the blade, which is in good condition.
A single ring, which is normal; in 1882, sabers went from two to one ring. It's all very consistent, in its original condition.
We haven't cleaned the guard or the blade; we leave it up to you to decide whether you want to keep this reminder of the past as is, or to polish it.
Total length 102 cm, including the blade 86 cm.
