Officer c1895


The upper part of the green tunic with the top two rows of cords are seen here. Each row is made up of 5 gold cords fixed together for neatness. They button up to gold olivets on either side. The red collar has three quarter inch lace around the top and front with gold Russia braid at the base of the collar and down the front edges of the tunic. The pouchbelt is of gold lace and the flask cord is fixed to it by discreet wire loops.
