Product Overview
These Civil War Gold Epaulettes are designed as accurate reproduction shoulder epaulettes for a range of officer ranks, including General, Colonel, Lieutenant Colonel, Major, Captain, 1st Lieutenant, and 2nd Lieutenant. Made with metallic gold thread, they reflect the structured appearance associated with Civil War officer uniforms.
The construction varies by rank to maintain proper visual proportion. General, Colonel, Lieutenant Colonel, and Major epaulettes feature brass construction with gold tassels measuring approximately 3.5 inches in length and 0.25 inch in diameter. Captain, 1st Lieutenant, and 2nd Lieutenant epaulettes are also brass constructed, with smaller gold tassels measuring approximately 2.5 inches long and 0.125 inch in diameter.
Designed to match the historical look of 19th-century U.S. military uniforms, these epaulettes shoulder pieces provide a consistent and appropriate finish for uniform presentation. Suitable for reenactments, collectors, and display use, they offer a clear and structured representation of officer rank styling.
Please note that rank insignias are sold separately. Each set of civil war epaulettes is sold as a pair.
