The Roman Gladius Sword Replica by JW SteelCrafts captures the iconic shape of ancient Rome's most famous sword. It measures 24 inches overall, with an 18-inch blade and a 6-inch wooden handle, built on a strong full-tang frame. The short, straight, broad blade gives it real historical presence on a stand or wall.
This handcrafted piece is made as a display sword and collector's item, ideal for Roman-themed décor, history lovers, reenactment styling, and gifts. Because each sword is hand-finished, small differences in detail give every piece its own character.
The gladius was the short sword carried by the soldiers of ancient Rome, central to the Roman legions for several centuries, roughly from the 3rd century BC to the 3rd century AD. Its short, straight, broad blade was designed for close-order ranks and became a defining symbol of Roman discipline and organization. The very word "gladiator" comes from gladius, tying the sword to the arenas of Rome as well as its armies. Famous types like the Pompeii gladius are still studied today. This handmade replica honors that legacy as a display and collector sword, valued for its historical shape and presence rather than any field use.

Beyond beautiful!
Color: A-White, Color: A-White
This arrived in a beautiful bronze box protected by a cellophane sheath. Inside, the watch is amply padded with black foam; there are ample instructions and a tool to remove links. The rose-gold watch measures 9 inches long with all of its links attached and is protected by cellophane and a removable film. The watch face is a very light silver with clear rhinestones as most of the numbers, has rose-gold hands with white centers, and is covered by a watch glass with faceted edges. The rose gold band has six charms- three on each side, framing the watch face. Four are clovers with stippled edges and a faceted clear rhinestone center. Two are a cluster of four hearts- 2 solid hearts and 2 hearts with three clear rhinestones in the center. All of its edges are rounded for comfort for all-day wear. It's also water resistant for hand-washing. The face measures 3cm by 2cm which is the perfect size. I'm a dress size 4, 122 lbs and I removed 2 links, so plenty of room for all sized women. I cannot say enough about the quality and beauty of this watch. The pictures don't do it justice. Just gorgeous! Amazing value.
