A very attractive C.1700’s European Gilt Brass and Chalcedony Dagger. This is a large dagger that is probably French in origin and comprises a gilt brass hilt with very distinctive faceted hilt with upturned finials and fluted chalcedony quillons. The grip is bound with steel twistwire. The blade is of triangular form and plain and of high quality so it is probable that this was meant for use and was not just a decorative piece.
Dagger in good condition
Condition of the dagger is very good and there is no damage or repairs. The blade has a fine age patina. Blade length is 16 inches (21 inches overall).
