Title: Sterling Silver Throat For a Sword Scabbard
Post by: LRB on February 14, 2014, 02:57:41 PM
Same pattern type as the other posted here, but of sterling silver. Just finished this one. Design was inspired from an English original. All sterling silver. Main throat body is 20 ga.,1/32" SS, the entry cap is 12 ga.,1/16" Frog button is 8 ga.,1/8". The frog button stud is from 6mm SS thick walled tube with a SS washer as the base. This one made me a bit nervous knowing a mistake could be expensive. Still have to make the drag/chape for the toe of the scabbard. Pics were hard to take from all the reflection. This will be for an English hanger scabbard. Hope you enjoy a look. I will post more pics when the project is completed.
