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.

Just to let you know that the kukri arrived today safe and sound, many thanks for sending it so quickly. I'm more than pleased with this kukri, I'm so glad I spotted it on your website as I don't think I've ever seen another one like it for sale anywhere.

Once again many thanks and I hope to do business with you again in the future.
