<B>Rare Confederate Artillery Officer's Sabre made by Thomas Griswold of New Orleans</B></I> closely resembling the standard M1850 sword specified by U.S. Army regulations of the period. 35.25" overall length with 29.5" blade, brass guard decorated with open work rose and floral designs, pommel having forward laurel leaf border, leather-bound grip secured with brass wire wraps, ricasso stamped "THOMAS.GRISWOLD & CO. NEW ORLEANS", plain steel blade with no evidence of etched design remaining. The leather scabbard has brass drag, ring mounts and rings. The cutting edge of the blade displays several nicks. There is also considerable wear to the grip leather as well as to that making up the scabbard's body. Overall fine condition. A well-made product by a master who produced some of the South's finest presentation swords before the Union capture of New Orleans.<BR><BR><b>Shipping:</b> Large Collectibles (<a target="_blank" href="http://www.heritageauctions.com/common/shipping.php">view shipping information</a>)
