Title 1897 pattern George V infantry officer's sword
Nationality British
Period c 1914
Sold

This fine sword has its parade scabbard and virtually 100% of its nickel silver finish with a little minor rust spotting to the inside of the guard. It is proof stamped for Charles Reeves (ie the maker), who worked from 1902-38.


Although the sword is common enough, to find a George V example in this condition, with near enough factory finish to the blade, is increasingly uncommon.

Having received the beautiful medal that has been the subject of many recent phone calls, I am absolutely delighted with it. More importantly, the research you provided into the military backgrounds of all those involved made it all the more poignant. Thank you for your highly professional and friendly help and advice throughout the transaction.
