W. CLAUBERG
SOLINGEN

This indicates that the sword was made in the legendary "City of Blades" in the mountains of Western Germany. Wilhelm Clauberg AG, Waffen- & Stahlwarenfabrik was founded in 1810, and exported large numbers of blades to England and the U.S.A. By 1887 however they had ceased weapon production, and were mainly making razors and steelware.

Both the North and South imported Swords and guns from Europe and European Manufacturers, mostly in Germany, and they did not want the eventual "winning side" to be able to blame them for "supplying the enemy". This is a typical example in much better than average condition. 

This sword conforms quite well to the M1840 U.S. Heavy Cavalry pattern, and is approximately 41.50” overall size, 36” blade, 43" in scabbard. It has a brass wire bound leather grip, and a brass three branch hand guard.

 

It has the correctly wicked heavy curved blade measuring 36". The blade is in wonderful condition with the exception of a small nick or two to the cutting edge. There has been a “U.S 1861” added to the reverse side of the ricasso as well as an additional “U.S” stamp added to the brass hilt. Which is not seen on German imports, leading us to conclude it has been a post war alteration. You will also find a racking number “21” on the brass hilt and “45” on the pommel.

A great example of a Civil War Era M-1840 Wristbreaker Saber from a German maker. Complete with scabbard, this sword is ready to display!

Approximate Dimensions:

Blade Length: 36"
Blade Style: Single Edged Curved Saber with WideFuller
Overall length: 41.50”
In Scabbard length: 43”

My fave ever
I bought this to travel for a summer camp and still use it, two years later! It is now my everyday jewelry container. The gold clasp has held up well and closes well. Very easy to use and structurally sound! I love the color and overall vibe of it too- very straight forward. I use the top portion for long earrings, so know if you do that, it can be finnicky, if you have fun or funky shaped earrings- so just know they may get caught but it's such an easy fix. I would say it is about the size of half of an American Girl doll. Maybe around the size of half a goose.

Love this! Sturdy and elegant
I have a small selection of jewelry pieces I wear but I needed something that would keep them all together in one place. This jewelry box is fantastic! And It fits two pairs of sunglasses on the bottom compartment. I like that there’s a little tab to help pull up the top part. It was actually a bit bigger than expected which is a good thing. And still small enough for traveling. The necklace tabs are sturdy and hold them in place. I’m very satisfied with my purchase.

Get Bejewelled
This box is very nice. It feels sturdy. The color is true to the product picture and the material feels nice. The size is as expected. This was a gift for a young woman; she loved it and that it was cute enough to "fill space" while also being functional.

Great for travel or countertop
I ordered 9 of these for my four girls and all my nieces- in two of the nine, the trays sunk in without holding up, the others were great! I love how I can keep them out and they look pretty, or pack them away in luggage for easy transportation!
