Description

This Heer field tunic, worn by a Generalleutnant, features distinctive grey buttons instead of the traditional golden ones and is adorned with red piping along the button line, a characteristic detail of general's tunics.

The collar tabs are in worn condition, displaying noticeable patina. They have been re-attached, and the early seam work is consistent with the size and style of general's tabs.

The breast eagle is in slightly better condition with minimal signs of wear and is hand-stitched.

The tunic also includes sewn-in shoulder boards with a pleasing patina.

It is lined with silk and lacks a tailor’s tag.

Overall, the tunic is in good condition, with only a few minor moth bites.
