Very beautiful and rare cavalry officer's saber model 1923 but atypical because of its blade which is that of a model 1882 saber.
Beautiful mirror blade without chipping and unblunted 86.5 cm marked on the back "Manuf. de Châtellerault Fevrier 1883 Light Cavalry Model 1882"
Brass frame. Cap with domed padding and short tail adorned with an oak branch and a laurel branch.
Filigree handle of a twisted brass wire and embroidered with simple threads
One piece guard shell including knuckle bow. Two frontal notches give rise to two secondary branches and an interior notch delimits a posterior branch. Each branch thus formed is adorned with a palm.
leather tie
Leather strap
Sheet steel scabbard with a single bail strap and finished with a lyre dart (small gaps at the bottom of the scabbard chipped)
Saber length: 101 cm and 103 cm with scabbard
Weight: about 1500g
Nice collector's item
Delivery colissimo signature and insurance 20€ for France - 30€ for areas of the E.U. - No other destinations
