About the Item

Presenting an exceptional pair of early 19th-century Spanish military shoulder epaulettes, a testament to the artistry and opulence of the era. Crafted from meticulously tooled gold-gilded brass, these epaulettes are not only a symbol of rank and prestige but also exquisite works of art. Lined with sumptuous maroon-colored velour, they offer a luxurious contrast to the radiant gold tones. Adorned with intricate details, the pair is embellished with gold-gilded laurel leaves and ornate crested buttons, each element showcasing the exceptional craftsmanship of the period. One cannot help but be drawn to the ornate applied silver design, culminating in a magnificent silver and velour crown positioned prominently above. These epaulettes not only exemplify a rich military tradition but also serve as elegant decorative items, encapsulating the regal spirit of their time. Designed for practicality, they feature hinged arms at the back for easy attachment and locks at the top to secure them in place. To further enhance their allure, they have been carefully mounted on a hand-painted black panel and encased within a splendid gold-gilded, hand-finished frame. This pair of Spanish military epaulettes represents a fascinating fusion of history, art, and luxury—a testament to the grandeur of a bygone era and an exquisite addition to any collector's trove or a display of historical elegance in your space.
