Dover ring hilt sword - Owen Bush Pattern Welded
£2,200.00
Based closely on an excavated sword held in the British Museum and recovered from a 6/7thC graveyard in Buckland, near Dover.
The original sword had a pattern welded blade with gilded silver hilt fittings. The reproduction has all the hilt components made separately and assembled as they should be. The hilt components can be either polished bronze or gold plated.
Blade to be purchased separately from Owen Bush (approx £2500) and I will mount your chosen blade.
