This is a miniature of the sword carried by the “Iron Chancellor,” Otto von Bismarck. If you look closely, you will see his family’s coat-of-arms. The blade is plain. Overall, this sword, which measures 7 1/2″ in length, is in fine condition. This would make a super desk piece. Or as the original owner may have done, you can open letters with it.

In the past we have offered miniatures of the German naval dagger. We have never offered one quite like this! This miniature was intended either as a tie tack or as a lady’s pin. It has a safety on the reverse. The attaching pin is mounted to the scabbard’s reverse. The dagger actually can be withdrawn from its scabbard, to which it is attached by a very fine gold-toned chain. When withdrawn, we see that the blade is plain, with a high-silver finish. The overall dagger length (in the scabbard) is 2 1/4.” When withdrawn from the scabbard, the dagger measures 1 1/2″ in length. The scabbard by itself measures 1 1/2.”
It is a very handsome decorative piece which can be worn by that special person (or you) on dress-up occasions!

This is a high-quality, lionshead officer’s sword from a Prussian artillery regiment. A lionshead sword is the classic German officer’s sword. Its grip displays the dramatic lion’s head, which features twin red glass eyes. The grip is wrapped in sharkskin. Crossed artillery cannon tubes are depicted on the extension running down from the cross guard. A handsome Prussian officer’s portépée is attached. It is in appealing condition. The scabbard is painted black, and has an unusual feature. The two hangers and their attachment to the scabbard are gold-toned, instead of the usual black. The scabbard measures 34 3/4″ in length. The sword measures 38 1/4″ from the lionshead’s top to the sword’s tip. Both sides of the blade are engraved. The engraving shows some wear, but the sword remains quite attractive.
