Antique 19Th Century Sword Ornate Blade Lions Head Original Scabbard India 38”

Description

This is one of two pieces and I just got from an old estate.
I know nothing about swords or knives.
I had to buy these to get the toys and trains. Please take a close look at the photos.
Overall measurement is 38 inches.
Condition is used but appears pretty good to me for its age.
I believe the scabbard is original it was originally blue velvet has darkened to black.
The blade appears to be very well done, ornately etched ,very nice take a close look.
Appears to be a brass handle with a lion head.
Other than that I have no idea so please ask questions prior to bidding.
