Title Wurttemberg Uhlan officer's cap lines
Nationality German
Period c 1900
Sold

A rare set of cap lines (attached at one end to the cap and the other to the officer's tunic) for the two regiments of Wurttemberg lancers. They could date as late as 1918, but are more likely pre-1914 pieces, as this sort of material would have been worn only on dress occasions. Silver, black and red are the colours of Wurttemberg.

They are constructed from silver bullion on a kapock base and are shot through with black and red silk thread.

The condition is excellent, showing little signs of use, although they are somewhat tarnished.

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.

Many thanks, Chris, once again its been a pleasure doing business!
