Title Household cavalry officer's chin chain rosettes, a pair
Nationality British
Period c 1870 on
Sold

These fine fire gilt rosettes would have secured the chin chain of the household cavalry helmet to the body of the piece. One, however, has a replacement post on the reverse, without a screw thread. The gilding on both is in excellent shape, with a little rubbing to the highlights.

The belt buckle arrived this morning. I'm delighted with it. I've been after one for years.
