Slotted hilt sword. The hilt consists of a slotted hilt with plain bridges; a fluted ivory grip; an eagle-head pommel with prominent tang button, and delicate marking out of the individual feathers. The blade is very curved, with a broad fuller for most of its length, and has etched decoration. The black leather scabbard is tooled, with gilt mounts. Suspension rings hang from the top and mid locket, and there is also a frog stud on the top locket. There is no shoe to the chape. There is plain thread decoration on all these mounts. A swordknot is attached - a blue and gold tassel, with no top to it, and a gold and red (faded other colour?) cord. The spine of the blade is inscribed 'OSBORN'. The obverse of the blade is inscribed with bands of geometric patterning, a ferrule figure in voluminous robe, resting on an anchor, above a 'pavilion' with tassels, and a leafy scroll ending some sort of leafy plant. The reverse is inscribed with bands of geometric patterning, a trophy composed of foul anchor, shield, flag, cannon and halberd, naval crown, the cypher 'GR' below a crown, and an urn (?) draped with material supporting intricate leafy design.
