Description from the seller
Celtic Iron Longsword with Scabbard – 94.5 cm, circa 450–100 BC
Celtic Iron Sword with Scabbard – Ancient Artefact
Description
Offered for sale is an exceptional Celtic iron sword complete with its original iron scabbard. The sword remains inside its iron scabbard and has become fused to it through centuries of corrosion.
The piece measures approximately 94.5 cm in total length. It has undergone restoration, with certain areas apparently supplemented or reconstructed to preserve its current condition and better display the surviving original material.
Celtic swords of this type are characteristic weapons of the Iron Age Celtic cultures of Europe. The combination of the sword and its original scabbard makes this artefact particularly interesting to collectors of ancient weapons, archaeology and Celtic cultural history.
