This particular rapier came from the E.A. Christiansen Collection. A
world-famous collection of Viking, Medieval and Renaissance swords. It was purchased
from Peter Finer. The Dresden rapiers were used by the bodyguards of the prince electors
of the holy Roman emperor in Dresden. During WW2 the whole collection was moved
out and stored in caves for preservation. Eventually, the collection sold off pieces in
waves and once it was in Soviet possession the arms were sold at a faster clip. The
Dresden rapiers are quite rare. Over the years, rapiers had their blades broken. Some of
the only rapiers that are positive to be homogenous are those from the Dresden collection
along with a few other royal collections. The collection was formed by the prince electors
of Saxony in Dresden in 1570-1620. The quality of the sword would express the rank of
the person. It usually came with a matching dagger for parrying as well as a musket and a
brace of wheel lock pistols.
