A CIVIL WAR, AMES CHICOPEE MASS MARKED STAFF SWORD

Item Details

Description

CIVIL WAR, AMES, CHICOPEE MASS MARKED STAFF OFFICERS SWORD: This original Civil War Officers sword made by the Ames manufacturing company is a prime example of the quality of craftsmanship produced for Union soldiers during the American Civil War 150 years ago. This sword is in untouched condition and has never been tampered with. Etching is clear on both sides of blade. Floral designed, the makers engraved name and US prominently displayed. The brass mounts on the original scabbard retain much of their gold gilt finish. A fine example of a Civil War union officer's Ames sword with making not only on the blade but on the gold scabbard mounts. Always together, therefore the sword and scabbard carry the same nice patina. Please note sharkskin.
