We are pleased to offer you an exceptional fragment of the Napoleonic epic – an authentic French infantry hanger, known in military history as "Briquet". This is not an ordinary military exhibit; it is a witness to battles that shaped the fate of Europe at the beginning of the 19th century. Every militaria collector will appreciate not only its practical qualities but, above all, its historical aura and craftsmanship of the era. This hanger was standard equipment for line infantry soldiers of Napoleon Bonaparte's Grande Armée. Its design combines simplicity of execution with remarkable functionality. A distinctive feature of this model is the brass handle, cast in the same form as the guard, creating the iconic shape resembling the letter "S". Such construction ensured a secure grip even in the damp conditions of the battlefield. The blade is made of high-quality steel, distinctly curved – a typical feature of bayonets and hangers of that period. Its profile indicates the weapon's purpose for hand-to-hand combat, but also for utility tasks in the military camp. The blade retains traces of use, which add to its authenticity and emphasize the object's long history. For enthusiasts of military history and the Napoleonic era, this is a true treat. Every detail – from the rivets in the handle grips to the patina on the brass – tells the story of the foot regiments that marched from Madrid to Moscow. This is not just a weapon, but a symbol of the era, courage, and craftsmanship from the times of the French Empire. Condition: The presented specimen is preserved in good collector's condition. The brass elements are covered with a natural, old patina, the steel blade shows signs of use and grinding, which is common in original specimens.
