German processional two-handed sword
This object is a large two-handed sword that was made to impress
rather than as a weapon. Swords like this would have been used to
thrill the crowds at parades, gatherings, and other civic
events.
The sword features a fig-shaped pommel that surmounts a
leather-covered grip. The sword's hilt also featured a slightly
downturned crossguard with scrolled terminals.
