FUR-LINED INFANTRY FUSILIER BONNET OF THE ROYAL GUARD, model 1816, Restoration. 27645
Natural leather frame, made up of elements sewn together edge to edge with white linen thread. At the level of the cap, the frame is cut on the bias, causing the back part to drop by about 30 mm.

At the front, the bonnet measures 420 mm in height, front to the top of the crown 370 mm, back to the base of the crown 330 mm, width at the top approximately 290 mm.
Bearskin made up of pieces sewn together, it is threaded onto the frame and sewn at the bottom with the edge of the cap. At the location of the tightening buckle, the skin is cut to allow for cap adjustment.
Plume holder sewn on the left side. A small opening is made 170 mm from the lower edge, intended to receive the base of the plume. Inside the skin, a leather gusset is sewn.
A double black lace is sewn at the top of the bonnet and intended to attach the front tassel.
Interior cap in black waxed sheepskin (H 120 mm) cut into seven wolf teeth points. The tips of the wolf teeth points are folded over themselves to allow the lace for adjusting the cap to pass through. The lower edge of the cap is folded outward from the frame, over the bearskin, to a height of 10 mm and sewn.
Round scarlet cloth crown Ø 135 mm. In the center, a white fleur-de-lis embroidered in cotton thread, H 130 mm, width 95 mm. The edges of the cloth are folded over and roughly sewn.
