A shako for officers of the Imperial "Seebataillone" (naval infantry) Leather body with fine black fabric covering, black-lacquered leather cap, brim, and rim reinforcement; fire-gilded brass fittings. Screwed onto the front is the beautifully gilded Imperial Navy eagle with polished details. Flat, leather-backed scale chains (one buckle strap has been cut off and is missing) attached to pin rosettes; the Imperial cockade is missing. Inserted at the top is the silver field insignia for officers with a black velvet backing (the black ring on the front is dark blue; presumably an Oldenburg wearer who was transferred from IR 91 to one of the naval battalions). Also included is the parade cap with a beautifully gilded shakot cone, an officer’s cap plate, and black buffalo hair. Partially and minimally damaged; shows signs of wear and age. Very rare and of high rank. Condition: II
