BRITISH INFANTRY OFFICERS SWORD BY EICKHORN SOLINGEN.

This model sword was carried by British officers from the late Victorian period until the present day, this fine example is from the Queen Elizabeth the 2nd period and probably dates to the 1960's. The sword is basically in mint condition but the scabbard shows light wear. Silver basket hilt is in mint condition and it features the ER2 crown and initials. The fish skin grip is in mint condition. The blade is also in mint condition and it is double etched with long foliage panels with ER2 cypher and crown, the blade is by the well known German edged weapon manufacturer, Eickhorn Solingen and features there squirrel trade mark in an oval, this is the first example of this British sword which I have seen that was produced by Eickorn, it is also interesting that they are using an early style trade mark which is normally seen in the early 1930's or before, even though the sword is much latter. Dark brown leather scabbard with silver mount and belt hanger, there is a scuff mark at the lower part of the scabbard but over all it is still in excellent condition and could be improved. Complete with brown leather sword knot. [Condition: Near Mint]

BRITISH 1854 PATTERN PRESENTATION OFFICERS SWORD OF THE SCOTS GUARDS BELONGING TO MAJOR ARTHUR PURVIS WHO WAS AWARDED THE MILITARY CROSS DURING WW1,IN 1939 HE SERVED ON THE STAFF OF THE DUKE OF WINDSOR (KING EDWARD THE 8TH) .

Major Arthur Purvis was born in 1890, he originally joined the Cameron Highlander Regiment in 1914 as a Lieutenant but he transferred to the Scots Guards in 1915, in 1917 he was awarded the military cross for bravery and he was also wounded. From 1919-1920 he served with the British military mission in South Russia, in 1920 he was awarded the Order of St Anne of Russia.In 1925 he married Rachel Emily Nairn. From 1935-1939 Major Purvis served on the staff of the Governor of New Zealand as his military secretary. In 1939 he was posted to Paris to be the Equery to the Duke of Windsor, the former King of England who abdicated in 1936 and who it is believed was a supporter of Fascism and the Third Reich and a close friend of Sir Oswald Mosley the leader of the British union of fascists. Major Purvis died in 1955 and he is buried at Dunino near St Andrews in Scotland. Complete with some research and a photograph of Major Purvis from his time in New Zealand and which shows him in full military uniform wearing this actual sword. I am sure much more could be discovered about this brave officer and his interesting carrier in the army. [Condition: Near Mint]
