Item Details
Description

SILVERBERG, CHARLESTON". Silverberg was a supplier of accoutrements to the south during the Civil War. The bone scales are in fine condition with no cracks or losses and have acquired a beautiful yellow patina. The leather sheath has lost the German silver tip but still retains the ornate lions face belt holder. Circa 1860. Size ~18" L.
