A combat smallsword dating: early 18th Century provenance: Europe, Broad, straight blade of lenticular section, slightly widened at the forte. Iron hilt featuring a trigger guard on both sides, the outer one being wider and more enveloping; both are provided with a finely pierced, mesh-patterned valve. Iron quillon with a rounded block, arms of the hilt, and a simple, counter-curved guard fitted into the pommel. The grip is most likely earlier, featuring a beautiful copper wire binding worked in an interlaced pattern with small plates and shaped into raised bulb-like forms, with Moor’s heads at the ends. Spin-shaped pommel with large button. In a fine earlier patina, little or never restored.
