Prussian cuirassier Kollet or heavy jacket

Prussian cuirassier regimental Kollet or jacket, made of a very heavy, thick woollen kersey cloth (1000g/mt), faced with the same fabric and fully lined with natural raw linen/hemp, wool braid lace, flat pewter or brass buttons for the shoulder straps. The front is fastened with hooks & eyes, like the short turnbacks and the cuffs. Unusually, to avoid bulky and uncomfortable seams, the sleeves are set in around the armholes with flat seams sewn from the outside and felled inside. Accurately and faithfully replicated from the original Kollet preserved in the Berlin Zeughaus.
Any regiment can be made, but some regimental lace is only available for a MOQ of 5 coats. The coat can be made in standard sizes or to measure (see measure form above).
Also available the officer's coat in a much finer wool cloth.
