The Hungarians have a mythical bird called Turul which is a falcon/hawk. https://szerveto.com/szer-veto/symbo...mythical-turul
The pommel could represent its head and its body could be represented folklore style on the scabbard. The items might then have been part of a 19thC Hungarian cultural or magnate’s sabre? Hungary was part of the Roman province of Pannonia and Hungarians like to include Roman symbolism.
