An Extremely Rare Latvian Navy Officer’s Dress Sword by E. & F. Hörster, Solingen, c. 1920-1930

This is an exceptionally rare and historically significant officer’s sword from the brief interwar period of the First Latvian Republic. Its impeccable provenance is confirmed by the maker’s mark of the legendary German firm E. & F. Hörster, Solingen, a benchmark of the highest quality. The sword features the Latvian Coat of Arms prominently on the hilt, leaving no doubt as to its official, state-issued status.

A key distinguishing feature is its elegant and scarcer leather scabbard with brass fittings, suggesting a specific dress pattern. The survival of such a potent symbol of Latvian sovereignty, especially in this condition, is remarkable.
