VIKING SWORD WITH 'TEA-COSY' POMMEL
Ca. AD 1050 - 1250 A medieval forged iron sword with a ‘tea-cosy’ pommel and a square, straight crossguard. In Ewert Oakeshott’s typology of swords, this blade is closest to what he describes as a Type Xa due to its fuller running nearly the total length of the blade and its curved tip. This type was popular amongst Norse raiders but remaind in use into the the thirteenth century. For similar see: Cambridge University's Museum of Archaeology and Anthropology, Accession No. 1931.253. Size: L:960mm / W:153mm ; 1.51kg Provenance: Private Leeds (UK) collection; acquired in the 1980s/90s.This item has been cleared against the Art Loss Register database and comes with a confirmation letter.
