Title King's Royal Rifle Corps officer's astrakhan hat plume
Nationality British
Period c 1900
Price £0.00
Sold

This fine plume of red osprey feathers over black vulture feathers, with its original plume boss in black and white metal, and its tin, would have been worn with the black astrakhan side cap of the KRRC in the late 19th century and on into the early 20th in full dress until 1914.

It is in excellent condition, thought the feathers are slightly soiled at the ends.

Very pleased with the cavalry sword, a very unusual piece.

The day the blunderbuss arrives I could not stop looking and feeling the gun for at least one hour. My wife told me that I was sick........ I am very happy, it is a piece of craftsmanship! Well made! I have 5 blunderbusses but all iron barrel, also from England but this one is gorgeous with the Brass Barrel.

Please keep me informed when you have any other type of blunderbuss. Thanks my friend!
