The barrel has gold floral patterns along most of its length along with untranslated markings in gold on top among the designs in the midsection. The lock also has gold floral patterns and an untranslated marking near the center. The gilt metal stock is very ornate and has cast classical martial, floral, and twist designs. The blade front sight is integral with the front stock band, and the notch rear sight is built into the upper tang.
Fine with most of the original gold remaining on the lock and barrel and dark brown patina on the balance, strong original gilding on the stock (especially in the wrist and pommel flutes), and moderate overall wear.
