Title Dragoon chin chain, 1871 pattern
Nationality British
Period c 1900
Sold

This is the standard chin chain for the other ranks dragoon helmet, though it could be officers' on account of an apparent gilt finish, but officers' chin chains normally had velvet or morocco leather lining instead of plain calf as this one. It is in nice order, with all the stitching complete.

The day the blunderbuss arrives I could not stop looking and feeling the gun for at least one hour. My wife told me that I was sick........ I am very happy, it is a piece of craftsmanship! Well made! I have 5 blunderbusses but all iron barrel, also from England but this one is gorgeous with the Brass Barrel.

Please keep me informed when you have any other type of blunderbuss. Thanks my friend!

I received the item today, you had packed it well and there were no problems with customs. Overall I was happy with it although the blade was a little bit worse than I had imagined, however thank you for your efforts.
