Sweden: Knight Grand Cross of the Swedish Military Order of the Sword (Riddare med stora korset av Svärdsorden), circa 1808–09, awarded to Captain William Henry Webley (later Webley-Parry, 1764–1837), Flag Captain to Rear-Admiral Sir Samuel Hood aboard HMS Centaur, for the destruction of the Russian 74-gun Vsevolod (1796) off Rågervik (Paldiski), 26 August 1808. A celebrated naval action fought alongside HMS Implacable (Capt. Thomas Byam Martin) in support of Britain’s Swedish allies during the Finnish War (1808–09). Webley was granted Royal permission to accept and wear the insignia of the Swedish Order of the Sword (Grand Cross) in January 1809. One of only four British officers to receive this distinction — during the Finnish War: Sir Samuel Hood, Thomas Byam Martin, and William Henry Webley; during the Napoleonic War: Arthur Wellesley, 1st Duke of Wellington. Founded in 1748 to reward military merit, the Order of the Sword could only be bestowed in wartime. Fewer than one hundred Grand Crosses were conferred throughout its history, the vast majority to Swedish officers. Early foreign awards from the Napoleonic period are exceptionally rare. This example has remained in the family of Webley-Parry by descent. Grand Cross badge, gold and enamel, 78mm including crown suspension, with yellow moiré and light blue ribbon; motto Pro Patria on blue enamel obverse, with three crowns over sword on reverse. 30g approx. Together with a contemporary Swedish chivalric badge (possibly Johanniterorden / Order of St John), of similar form — white-enamel Maltese cross with small gilt lions between the arms and crowned suspension, gold and enamel, 75mm including crown, 17.5g approx. Believed to have been presented in conjunction. An exceptional gold Grand Cross medal, awarded for bravery in battle, with family provenance. (B.P. 21% + VAT)
