11th Hussars


Officer's Pouch 1855-1901



Here are two views of a very good example of an officer's gilt and silver pouch. From the front it looks the same as the pre-Crimean War version but the view from the top shows the four battle honours won in that war. These were granted in October 1855 so were probably added the following year.
