Fine J.H. Lambert Philadelphia Marked American Sword with Scabbard

Measuring 34 inches overall, with a 29 1/4 inch blade featuring a flat spine, a fine niter blue wash on the lower half, martial themed and gold accented wire etching, and the markings "Philadelphia" on the left and "J.H. Lambert" on the right. Gilt finished hilt, with a one-branch guard, floral and laurel motifs, and a wire wrapped leather grip. With a black leather scabbard with brass fittings.

ConditionFine. The exceptionally fine blade shows bright original polish some mild spotting overall, with 80% of the bright original niter blue, brown patina around the ricasso, and mild handling marks. The hilt shows a mixed aged patina with traces of gilt finish in the protected areas, with mild wear on the leather. The scabbard is very good, with flaking and cracking of the leather.
