Iron, 112 cm [44 3/4 Inches]; Blade 95 cm [38 Inches]. Circa 14th Century A.D. Possibly contemporary with the Battle of Falkirk which was fought between Edward I of England and William Wallace of Scotland. A stunning sword made to be held with one hand in collaboration with a shield as opposed to two handed and hand and a half swords of this period. On either side, a thin fuller runs approximately half the length of the broad blade. One side is inlaid in latten with a Globus Cruciger. The globus cruciger (Latin) is an orb (globus) topped with a cross (cruciger), a Christian symbol of authority used throughout the Middle Ages on coins, iconography and royal regalia. It symbolises God's (the cross) dominion over the world (the orb), held under the protection and dominion of an earthly ruler, or sometimes-celestial being. On the other side of the blade is the remains of a Bishop's Crozier. Both of these marks being possible indications of loyalty to the king and the church. Below the colossal blade is the square section cross guard of 8 inches, a huge size as would be expected for such a sword. Below is the single handed tang with is a tapered/triangular shape with the point attaching the circular, beveled pommel. Inspected and certified by leading sword expert Andrew Lumley. Beautiful condition with stunning original patination.

Iron,103.2 cm [41 1/4 inches] Circa 1400 A.D. The sword has a thin convex blade, unusual as most swords of this period were broad with a deep fuller. Etched into either side of the sword is a depiction of a Scorpion. In the book The Civilization of the Holocaust in Italy, the art historian Marcel Bulard has shown that from the late 14th Century on, the scorpion symbol becomes a stable in representations of Jews in crucifixion scenes in which Jew's are portrayed as either carrying scorpion flags and banners or having scorpions emblazoned on elements or armour. The scorpion was chosen to represent Jews during the Jewish holocaust of the Middle Ages because of its grotesque appearance. At the base of the blade is an upward curving cross guard with scrolled terminals. The shape of the up curved cross guard meant that when an conflicting sword clashed and slid down it would be more difficult for an opponent to pull his sword back. It has a hand and a half rectangular tang so the sword could be swung with greater force, with the remains of a crown shaped pommel at the bottom. Professionally cleaned and in Very Fine condition.
