Scabbard

Scabbard for hanger, which originally belonged to Admiral Sir Robert Barlow (died 1843). The black leather scabbard has brass mounts, which are largely plain except for a simple thread decoration around the edge. The top locket and mid locket have rings for suspension. The obverse of the top locket has a stud for frog suspension and is lengthened. It disappears beneath the scabbard, to emerge below the mid locket in a clip-like form. The mid locket has indented edges.
