Gold Bullion Military Shako Dress Cord — Hand-Plaited with Flemish Knot Tassels

A substantial gold metallic bullion cord in the tradition of 19th-century European officer's shako and dress cords. Hand-plaited in a thick, lustrous multi-strand braid, forming a large loop designed to drape across the chest/shoulder and around the shako, secured with a woven toggle closure. Terminates in dual ornate flemish-knot "acorn" tassels with dense bullion fringe, plus additional smaller drop tassels for a fuller ceremonial finish.
