Product Overview
These Deluxe Oak Leaf Border Shoulder Boards – Civil War are historically accurate reproductions of the shoulder boards worn by officers on frock coats and overcoats during the American Civil War. Designed as deluxe insignia, they feature a three-row oak leaf pattern along the border with a wide center, reflecting the ornate style used on officer outerwear.
The shoulder boards are embroidered with extra-rich gold metallic thread on velvet, supported by a wool backing to closely match original period construction. The detailing, materials, and proportions provide a distinguished appearance appropriate for formal officer impressions.
Sold as a matched pair, these shoulder boards are ideal for reenactments, living history events, museum displays, and historically accurate Civil War officer uniform restorations.
