19th Century Victorian Cavalry Officer's Sabretache Sling Billets with original black leather attachments
A rare set of three fire gilt buckles depicting Lions heads. Minor wear, leather a bit dry but still functional. All three retaining buttons are present, but only one on show in photos. I will give the leather a mild treatment with renaissance wax before posting to make it more supple. Gilt remains bright and fresh. Scarce.

20th Middlesex Rifle Volunteers ( Artists) Brass Cap Badge, 1906 - 1908
Not to be confused with later pattern badges of the post 1908 Artist Rifles, this badge pre-dates these and is placed at circa 1906 - 1908 only and found with both loops and sliders. This is a good yellow brass example, a stiff die struck badge with original slider and strong crimp mark. A big thank you to Luke for identification.
