Early 17c 'Pappenheimer' Rapier for sale swap etc.
For the last six months this rapier has been stored with regular oiling. I have carefully removed the loose rust and it is now at the point of being nearly conserved.
In other words it's at the point where it could be cleaned or displayed in its 'sleeper' condition. It was found hanging in an alcove outside, and bought by a local general dealer. So, it's condition is near relic, but stable and not an excavated find. Selling it is a difficult decision, but I just can't keep everything! Even something as rare as this. I'll let the pictures speak for themselves. I'll consider shipping outside of the UK, but this is a very long and wide sword, so it will be expensive. I'm happy to explore options with interested parties. I'll also talk offers, swaps & P/X for interesting things. Especially for UK collectors. I'd even be happy to try and meet up in person. Price is £750. Shipping at cost, paypal add 4% http://i25.photobucket.com/albums/c5...a/SDC10150.jpg http://i25.photobucket.com/albums/c5...a/SDC10160.jpg http://i25.photobucket.com/albums/c5...a/SDC10156.jpg http://i25.photobucket.com/albums/c5...a/SDC10154.jpg http://i25.photobucket.com/albums/c5...a/SDC10160.jpg http://i25.photobucket.com/albums/c5...a/SDC10162.jpg http://i25.photobucket.com/albums/c5...a/SDC10163.jpg |
