A brass sword hilt that is said to have been recovered from the sea off Cape Trafalgar. One part is egg shaped set on a small plinth and has feathers etched onto the brass. The second part of the hilt has handles on either side and are attached to a square shaped piece of brass with two holes in either end, most like for the blade of the sword.
