"WW2 ERA GERMAN ARMY OFFICER’S SWORD & SCABBARD BY F. W. HÖLLER OF SOLINGEN

1889 Pattern dove’s head pattern sword, as worn by a German Army officer during the period 1935-45. The sword features the classic low profile dove’s head pommel, featuring a wire wrapped black composite grip with full wire wrap, mounted onto a stylised and decorative gilded brass back strap and ‘p’ shaped guard. The langet shows a mid 1930’s era gilded German eagle and swastika with stylised wreath, decorations etc. and blank dedication shield to reverse. The slightly curved nickel blade is 92 cm long and is maker marked to F. W. Höller of Solingen with ‘thermometer’ logo/trademark. There is light in and out wear, however the majority of the blade is free of wear and bright and clean, with a slight bend to end tip. The black enamel scabbard retains the suspension rings for hanging and small style drag. The scabbard is in very good condition, showing excellent age and the majority of the black enamel remaining. Overall length 106 cm, meaning whoever carried this sword must have been well over 6 foot tall, a giant by comparison."
