Title 3rd Foot officer's shoulder belt plate
Nationality British
Period c 1840
Sold

Last pattern of the 3rd Foot variety, complete with its soft calf leather backing. One ray (at approximately 8 o'clock) has several diamonds missing, otherwise this plate is in superb condition. These plates were worn on a white buff belt by the regimental officers, in order to carry the infantry sword usually on the left hand side.

Just letting you know that the whistle arrived here this morning safe and sound. Your excellent packaging was still totally intact and it took me all of five minutes to break into it to see my purchase. I am very pleased, it is a great whistle.
