A VERY RARE PRUSSIAN HUSSAR SABRE MADE FOR A BOY, mid-18th century, with leather covered wooden grip, brass stirrup hilt and curved 21in. single-edged blade, the forte engraved with stars and men-in-the-moon symbols, in its brass-mounted wooden scabbard, the scabbard mounts and hilt decorated with rococo scrolls and foliage (the back-strap and scabbard covering missing). Footnote: This two-thirds scale sabre may have been made for the son of a Hussar Officer in the Army of Frederick the Great or for a cadet at a military school. Its form is characteristic of sabres carried by Prussian Hussars in the Seven Years war and the rococo decoration is in keeping with Prussian court fashion. Frederick's place at Sans Souci was decorated in the high rococo style.
