Information

Baviera
length 139 cm.
Wide, double-edged blade with central fuller at the base featuring markings and symbols, the ricasso featuring the mark of the manufacturer of the Melchior Diefstetter crossed flagellum, the reverse side with Bavarian coat of arms. Iron hilt, quillons curved downwards with spiral-shaped ends and outer quillon with reinforcing ring; lower ring-guard with thumb ring; well pronounced twisted pommel of ovoid shape, the centre of each rib engraved with double lines. Wooden handle with two rings at the centre and other single rings; it perhaps keeps 40% of the original black leather binding. This lot is imported from a non-EU country and incurs additional taxes beyond the auction house commission and the V.A.T. Consequently, the total Buyer’s Premium, inclusive of all taxes, amounts to 35%.
