19th Century Italian Sword, 40 1/2 inches

Description

I'm not sure about the exact period but a sword expert saw it a while back and I believe he said early 19th Century, but maybe late 18th, I'm not sure. If anyone can tell from the looks of it, I'd appreciate your professional evaluation. It's in very good condition. The last 2 pics with flash obscure the color. And I have large hands.
