BICORNE HAT OF A MARÉCHAL DE CAMP, OR LIEUTENANT GENERAL, JULY MONARCHY.
Made of black "flamand" felt underlined with a wide gold braid known as the "general's edge," scalloped at the crest, woven with a double branch of oak leaves and acorns; a black curly ostrich feather is sewn inside the two edges; a gimp made of three matte gold twists, doubling around a large gilt uniform button for maréchal de camp and lieutenant general from August 19, 1836 (half-domed, burnished and matte gilt, embossed with a trophy composed of flags and a shield topped with a Gallic rooster helmet), missing cockade. The interior cap is made of black silk marked in gold with "ROUART rue Richelieu Paris."
Dimensions: Length 45 cm - Width 15 cm - Height 27 cm.
In fairly good condition, with wear to the felt and gilding of the braids, slight deformation, the interior cap in good condition, leather sweatband with a tear.
France.

The title of lieutenant-general was reintroduced to replace "général de division," and the title of maréchal de camp was used instead of "général de brigade" during the Restoration and July Monarchy, disappearing definitively in 1848.
