A GILT METAL ‘PAULOWNIA’ SMALL-SWORD FOR THE WESTERN MARKET A GILT METAL ‘PAULOWNIA’ SMALL-SWORD FOR THE WESTERN MARKET Japanese for the European market, 19th century The blade etched with paulownia tendrils on both sides, the elaborate gilt metal hilt features a reticulated downward guard plate, a phoenix-shaped guard on one side, and a handle on the other. The finial is of a flattened, globular form, and the grip is lined with metal threads. The scabbard is lined in leather and adorned with gilded fittings. All the gilt metal elements cast or incised with paulownia and foliage designs. A gold thread pommel is attached to the handle. LENGTH 75.8 cm WEIGHT 592 g (in total) Condition: Very good condition with minor wear, some rust to the blade, light scratches, and few nicks. By the early seventeenth century, the rapier, a long slender thrusting sword, began to dominate as the gentleman’s weapon of choice. During the course of the century, however, as civilian fencing techniques became more specialized and refined, the rapier developed into a lighter, trimmed-down weapon known by about 1700 as the smallsword. Smallswords, often richly decorated, remained an integral part of a gentleman’s wardrobe until the wearing of swords in civilian settings went out of fashion at the end of the eighteenth century, at which time pistols were replacing swords as arms most frequently used in personal duels. The majority of smallsword hilts are made of silver or steel, but many also employ a wide variety of luxurious materials, such as gold, porcelain, and enamel. At their best, smallswords combine the crafts of swordsmith, cutler, and jeweler to create an elegant weapon that was also a wearable work of art.
