  • Uniform of officer of" chevau leger lancier"

    Many customers asked us to have a quotation of this complete uniform.
    So we finally decided to reply, but....
    1) We cannot do exactly the same ammunition pouch, because we used original pieces that are now probably impossible to find again(but impossible is not french...said Napoleon)
    2)Sash was an old one, 100 yars old....next will be new.
    3)Shapska was made as 2 centuries ago with narrow wood pieces inserted inside vertical part bearing the top of the shapska. It is possible to make it cheaper, but also less nice..
    4)Trousers must be very tight, it means that if you want the same appearance, you have to visit us for adjustment. But we live in a very nice place!
    Delivery: about 5 months, except for ammunition pouch, according to selected type.

  • TROMPETTE DE DRAGON - Peninsula war. 1808-1814 from Bueno

    Translation soon...
    Les soldats ne sachant pour la plupart ni lire, ni écrire, et les trompettes devant être facilement repérés, étant données que c'était eux qui transmettaient les ordres, leurs tenues sont extrêmement particulières, et pour certaines tout à fait étonnantes si on les considère avec notre œil du XXI ème siècle.
    En effet les régiments s'identifiaient par leurs bien nommées "couleurs distinctives".
    Le fond de l'habit était souvent spécifique à l'arme, par exemple les cuirassiers avaient un habit bleu, alors que celui des dragons était vert, mais c'était les couleurs des cols, parements, revers et retroussis qui permettaient d'identifier le régiment, sans avoir à lire des numéros que beaucoup de soldats ne savaient pas déchiffrer.
