EXTREMELY RARE SET OF 'DOG LEAD' LEATHER HANGERS FOR NAVY SWORD.

A very hard set of hangers to find, far rarer than the cloth hangers for the navy dagger itself. These have a nickname of 'dog lead' hangers as the black braided leather hangers have a resemblance to commercial leads. Do to their nature and construction, they have a habit of drying out, becoming brittle and breaking. This is a very nice, pliable and supple set. The fittings are all brass which makes it an earlier set, as later on they used gilded aluminium. A unique opportunity to complete your Naval Officers sword with the correct accoutrements.
