Romantic Revival Decorative Dagger with Chain Scabbard, 19th Century.
A 19th-century European Romantic Revival decorative dagger with a richly cast historicist hilt and matching scabbard. The hilt is decorated with a small figural scene, while the scabbard features relief ornament, masks and a suspension chain.
