Typical Colt configuration with 6-5/16″ oct bbls mushroom shaped brass front sight, marked on the top flat “Colt Brevete” with silver plated brass grip frames containing 1-piece ebony grips. About 1/2 the bbl, the rammer pivot, all of the cylinder and frame, all of the back strap and butt and about 1/2 the trigger guard are beautifully etch engraved with grape vine, leaf and grape cluster engraving, having a stippled background.

The cylinder retains all five safety pins and the grip frame retains about 50% silver plate. The grips are fine and retain most of an old refinish.
