The renowned Italian swordmaster, Fiore dei Liberi, was active in Friulia, Northern Italy, at the end of the 14th and into the first decades of the 15th centuries. His martial art, "arte d'armizare", taught combative use of the sword, dagger, spear, and poleaxe, in and out of armour, on foot and on horseback. 

This pin is based on Fiore's sword in one hand posta and is marvelously fluid, showcasing Fiore's elegant movement system. 

Made from high-detail bearing jewelers' brass, featuring a solid pin on the back side.
