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.

Wanted to let you know the items arrived today. Great job on the packing. Too often I buy very expensive and irreplaceable items from the UK and they get sent barely packed to protect them from the various postal services - appreciate you going the extra mile to insure it arrived in the shape it left. Thanks again, look forward to doing business with you in the future. Items were very nice, exactly as offered.
