Fusilier Officers Gilt Brass Greatcoat / Cape Cloak Chains
A lovely fire gilt pair, near mint with minimal service wear and complete with original 7 link chain, clasp and three original horizontal loops to the reverse of each grenade. Worn by regiments such as the Northumberland Fusiliers, from 1864 until 1905. Thanks to George for also confirming they are still officer issue for the Life Guards, although these are of much earlier issue.
Col D R Wood ("The Fifth Fusiliers and its Badges" (2nd Edn)) Fig 217 refers.
Please note that on account of depth I will only post these to a UK address.
