France, Reign of Louis-Philippe (1830–1848). Model 1833 ship’s saber for training, produced by the Royal Manufactory of Châtellerault, 1838. Hilt with a shell-shaped guard and a faceted steel tang, showing remnants of its original pitch-black finish, which protected the metal from corrosion and seawater. An illegible hallmark is present, obscured by the pitch-black finish. Short pommel and a quillon ending in a beak. Natural leather scabbard present. Stained white blade, with a slight curve, a hollow edge, and a flat back, bearing traces of the marking “Manufacture ...... Châtellerault .... 1838" and engraved with a vertical anchor on both sides (worn, partially visible); three hallmarks on the heel, hidden by the leather strap, including a “W” surmounted by a star within a shield for inspector Simon WIEDEMAN—the model used during that period (1836–1843)—with the other two hallmarks illegible. The tip of the blade is protected by a round-ended brass piece riveted at one point. 80.5 cm (blade 67 cm). (Signs of wear and minor cosmetic imperfections; in good condition).
