Schirmmützen – Hussar Pairs

A few additions to the theme:

Husaren-Regiment Fürst Blücher von Wahlstatt (Pommersches) Nr.5 senior NCO (left - wool band) and officer (right - black velvet band). The officer is especially interesting, being a very lightweight riding cap with a foldable visor, almost no internal structure, and originally with a very thin gossamer silk lining. Both in the beautiful and distinctive madder red unique to this regiment.

Braunschweigisches Husaren-Regiment Nr.17 NCO (left) and officer (right), both being high-end examples when originally purchased, and showing the two variations of the Braunschweig TK.
