Scabbard

The white shark-skin scabbard has two silver - gilt lockets with rings attached, and a chape with an acorn end. The scabbard has been broken about 150 mms from the end and been skillfully repaired by the fitting of an additional locket 30 mms long. The top locket is ornamented with looped lines and two rosettes of facetted beads.
