Ancient Greek Patinated bronze Sword

Beautiful short sword known as the gladius, a weapon that marked an entire empire, sharp, agile, and precise...
It was used in battles as a frontline defense as well as a weapon in the famous games of the Arena in the Roman Colosseum.
This blade in particular lacks a grip since they were usually made of wood; its patina is impressive as well as its handling.
It comes with a luxurious wenge frame and a fascinating depiction of its use in the Arena along with a legend about the item.
Dated to 100 B.C. and part of a private collection in the United Kingdom since 1960.
