Product Overview
This navy insignia and rank cap badge captures the distinctive detail of Civil War Union Navy uniforms. Built on a dark blue wool cloth base, it features a gold wreath composed of oak and olive branches, measuring three inches in width for a balanced and visible design.
Each insignia includes a specific device that represents a naval role. The metallic thread embroidery creates strong contrast against the dark background, which improves visibility while maintaining period styling. As a result, each variation delivers a clear and recognizable identity within Civil War navy uniform standards.
The available rank options include a wide range of officer and specialist roles. These include stars, anchors, letters, crosses, and oak leaf designs, each carefully arranged to reflect its assigned position. Because of this variety, you can select the exact insignia needed for accurate uniform representation.
Whether used for reenactment or collection, this cap badge offers a structured and detailed approach to naval insignia. Each piece maintains consistent craftsmanship while allowing flexibility through multiple rank selections.
