Infantry colonel's epaulettes each with silver brocade body piped in silver twisted wire, silver crescent, triple row of heavy silver wire fringe, and hand embroidered gold eagle. Eagles retain embroidered silver wreath at chest and red cotton eye and tongue. Top of boards with small eagle infantry "I" button. Undersides with white silk and padded backing and white securing laces.  (Light soil, wear and some losses to white silk on both epaulettes, particularly near button-side. Loose embroidery threads and some pulls on fringe, but overall good condition given age and wear.)
