Item Description: Translate description
This Renaissance Rapier is a Type #58 under the Norman typology, featuring a stiff, diamond-section blade designed for precise thrusting. The pommel is a Type 29, a style commonly seen in the late 16th and early 17th centuries. Historical references to this type of sword appear in Juan Pantoja de la Cruz’s 1605 painting of Diego Villamayor, as well as a 1603 portrait of Christian IV of Denmark. The hilt is associated with the blade, suggesting it was assembled from period components, a practice not uncommon among well-used weapons of the time. In a day and age lacking appropriate policing, the private citizen was forced to protect himself from society and criminal dregs. The weapon of choice was the rapier from the middle of the 16th to the end of the 17th century. The rapier is a simple but highly effective sword against the non-armored. The rapier was primarily a thrusting weapon that could inflict serious injury to an adversary‚ vital organs with minimal effort Provenance: From a Belgium collection established after WWII. Dimensions: Approx. 44.5"Lx8.25"W 2.2LBS
