Bavaria, Kingdom. An Officer’s Brocade and Buckle

(Bayern Feldbinde für Offiziere). An extremely well-preserved Bavarian Officer’s brocade and buckle, the former constructed of a reinforced smooth blue wool underlay, the exterior bearing a silver aluminum wire tresse with two machine-embroidered light blue threaded bands, with dual sliding knots of identical composition, one end of the reverse affixed with a black leather tongue featuring seven eyelets for an adjustable fit, unmarked, measuring 45 mm (w) x 1120 mm (l), the opposite end retaining a period original buckle, constructed of gilded bronze, the obverse bearing a central raised Bavarian crown, set within a circular laurel leaf wreath, the reverse with a clip and buckle, unmarked, measuring 46 mm in diameter, with age-appropriate material fatigue to the brocade, in near extremely fine condition.
