Officer, elite squadron (Gard du Corps) German Light Horse 1807 - 1809
The original uniform consisted of a Polish lancer-style cream kurtka, faced in amaranth (a form of pink), with white wool epaulettes and pewter buttons. The czapska was of the usual style, covered in amaranth cloth and bedecked with a white plume with amaranth tip. The elite company was distinguished by white loops about the lapel buttons and a white aiguillette. This uniform was short-lived with white cloth replacing the cream.
This figure consists of the head and torso of the Airfix 54mm Polish Lancer, arms and legs from the 95th Rifleman.
