Default Saber for identification.

Rusty saber. After a couple of days of cleaning with wd and a brass brush, a mark is visible, crescent moon
The wood is the same color everywhere, even in inaccessible places

Very beautiful and rare sword. Possibly Polish from the 17th century.

The langets look a bit funny. The third photo show faint traces of sickle and grapes marks associated with Genoa. This style of sabre is more 16thC.
