vintage scarf “Les Régiments de Cuirassiers”
This design pays tribute to the prestigious French cuirassier regiments. On a vivid red background sits a cuirassier helmet at the center, radiating golden rays and surrounded by coats of arms, military emblems, and decorative motifs reminiscent of cavalry banners. The ivory border with gold fringe accentuates its ceremonial, banner-like character.
