This is a lovely classic Army Officer's "Dove Head" Sword, made by the well known firm of Alcoso Werke in Solingen, Germany, complete with the correct steel scabbard. This piece is also a real treasure as it is not constructed from the later war aluminum, but rather is made of solid brass, which was originally fully gilt. All of the details are still there, however cleaning has removed most of the original gilding,
