This hussar shako is a gift from the Borghese family to the Museo Napoleonico in Rome.
Prince Borghese was the second (official...) husband of Pauline, Napoleon's (very) sassy sister.
The Borghese family was extremely wealthy, hence the magnificence of this headdress, surely the most sumptuous shako of the entire First Empire period.
We remade one in size 56 to keep the proportions of the time.
It is for sale again, never worn, in mint condition.
