MAGNIFY

These buckles were worn by the Bavarian infantry and artillery units in the Great War. They were introduced in 1896 at the same time as the patterns of Prussia, Wurtemberg, etc.

A good example of this buckle, but the surface has suffered in the past from mild corrosion, which has been cleaned off, leaving a very faintly pickled finish.

If you want to comment on this item—re quality, age, etc—please email me.
