Offiziere attila.

Offiziere Attila des Husaren Rgt. nr. 13 ???
Some days ago on ebay.de was sold this husaren jacke. The seller have send it as a officers jacket of hussar Regiment n. 13 but I have some doubt about it.
In first the shoulder straps are without the crown and the cypher and the buttons may be silvered and not giltened. What do you think about it?
And if it's not of the 13th hussar regiment, what'is this? Thank you, Giorgio

It is a Interimsatilla of the Husaren-Regiment Nr.9
Kornblumenblau, gilted buttons and no cypher
Interimsatillas had always silver cording, for all regiments.

Thank you Kuerassier, so this attila is all original with gilted buttons and silvered cording.
If I have correctly understood in the interims attila only cording was always silvered. The buttons colour remained gilted or silver according to the regiment rules.
Wore them the cypher on the shoulder boards as the ordonance attila, or not?
Vielen danke, Giorgio

Yes and they wore cyphers.

You are almost correct. Husaren regiment No. 17 (Braunsweig) had a interims attila that was all black. Attila, buttons and cording was black. But this regiment is somewhat of special case when it comes to uniforms/headgear. Here is a picture of my interims attila for Hussar regiment No. 17.
