Imperial Guard Officer Horse Grenadier Sword
Dated: 1811
Maker: Lefevbre Paris
Culture: French
Measurements: overall length 1.17m; weight 1.964kg; weight without scabbard 1.28kg
The sword features a brass and leather scabbard similar to the second model for the Horse Grenadier troop sword. This particular model could have also belonged to the Empress’s Dragoons or to an officer of the Cuirassiers since the steel blade is straight and not curved. In any case it did belong to an Heavy Cavalry Officer from Napoléon Army. It is marked with the manufacturer’s name “Lefevbre Paris”, while the scabbard tip is marked "ND”.

Body Armor Jewelry is still trending, but I haven’t seen many DIYs for body chains, harnesses,or headpieces on DIY blogs. The jewelry itself is really cheap to make, especially if you find the right chain and can buy it by the foot.
For pages of DIY Chain Handpieces or Panjas go here.
