Offered is a very decorative pair ofSolid Brass Military Epaulettes.The Epaulettes measure 6 1/2 inches inlength and are 4 inches at their widest.They have a very nice scallope effecton the long portion - with a raised roundedlip around the end of the shoulder. Thereare stylized horns or bugles on each piecewhich can be removed. There are also holesin the center of each horn/bugle - I do not knowwhat these holes were for.the pieces are backed in leather - which canalso be removed. I bought a pair of these years ago - which I have framed for my personal collection. (Pleasesee photo #6 for an example) At that time I wastold that the epaulettes were U.S.Calvary fromthe Cival War Era. The pair that I am offering were purchased abouttwo years ago and I was told by the seller that theywere from a European Officers Dress Uniform. Theyare the same shape/size as my original pair except for the horn/bugles.I have done a bit of research - but have not been ableto find another pair. Consequently - I am unable toconfirm the date and/or provenance.Please noted that the framed Epaulette is Photo #6is an example of how they can be displayed and is notincluded in the auction.Thank you for your interest and good luck if you decide to bid.Please view my other listings as I have numerousother interesting vintage items up for auction.
