Imperial German Naval Officer Cap

This WWI era Officer cap is made of fine quality doeskin wool with mohair capband in dark navy blue and features the wreath and cockade with Imperial crown in beautiful, hand-embroidered gold bullion. The genuine leather sweatband, leather chin strap with gold anchor buttons and a shiny patent leather brim with a bound edge complete the cap. The light tan cotton lining includes early Imperial period markings of the "Erel" company: "Sonderklasse, Robert Lubstein Militarmutzenfabrik, Berlin N.W.21, Alt Moabit 105".
