What does this mean?

Dear Trava Jane Cagle,

You have a sword made of bone with engravings and an inlaid stone or piece of glass made in China late 20th century. Its framed, in many cases by the original maker and made for decorative purposes. Sword is in some cases a wood / bone copy of an existing weapon but this one is not easy to recognize and maybe a fantasy piece. People buy this and therefor it has a value. Its not old and cannot be used but is, as a decorative piece, attractive to many people.

Regards,

Simon Breider
