A troopers sabre of the Real Macedonia Regiment, epoch Ferdinand IV (1765-1805) dating: last quarter of the 18th Century provenance: Kingdom of Naples, Broad, double-edged blade of hexagonal section; grooved and engraved with floral and geometric motifs at the first part, and featuring the motto "REGIMENTO MACEDONIA" on the right side and "UN DIOS UNA LEI Y UN REI" on the left side. Typical solid brass hilt, large smooth knuckle-guard with outlined border, guard with four loop guards; the small rear valve marked "C.C.A.N. 22". Wedge-shaped pommel. Very rare. The "Real Macedonia" Regiment (1737–1799) was one of the rarest and most fascinating foreign troops of the Bourbon Kingdom of Naples. Composed of Christian exiles from the Balkans (Albanians, Greeks and Epirotes), it distinguished itself through its valour in guerrilla warfare and its unmistakable traditional kit, notably the white "fustanella", the long toupheki muskets and the deadly yatagans. This unique blend of European discipline and Eastern style means that today every artefact from this regiment is an exceptionally rare item of international appeal for collectors of 18th-century military memorabilia.
