LANCE FLAME OF CHEVAU-LÉGER LANCER, First Empire - Restoration. 32584
Serge flame composed of two bands of different colors, each 20 cm high: white upper band, scarlet lower band. It is double-pointed; the upper and lower parts are cut straight and measure 71 cm in length (the dimension given in the regulatory text of Bardin in 1812 is 67 cm); measured at the junction of the two colors, from the base of the points, it measures 40.5 cm (the regulatory text of Bardin in 1812 gives 37.5 cm) in length, the opposite side of the points is folded over by 3.5 cm and pierced with three eyelets (the BARDIN regulation mentions "a 2 cm wide leather strip, covered in canvas, and pierced with three eyelets). H 40 cm; width 74 cm.
France. First Empire - Restoration. Good condition, some small accidents, sun-faded colors.
NOTE: This type of equipment is quite complicated to identify because very few examples have come down to us, and comparisons are very rare. We have compared this example to the description made in the text of the BARDIN regulation of 1812: "CHAPTER SEVENTH: SPECIFIC PROVISIONS FOR LIGHT ARTILLERY, LIGHT CAVALRY, AND BODIES ASSIMILATED TO THIS CAVALRY; SECTION 4 - French Chevau-légers - Article 4 - Arms and Equipment". "Article 1454 - Composition of the equipment The equipment will be entirely in accordance with what is prescribed in the general provisions (See No. 657 to 681). It will also include a lance flame and a lance strap for those who will use this weapon. The musket-strap flag will also be distributed in equal number to that of the muskets. Article 1455 - Lance flame". The Bardin regulation of 1816 mentions the same characteristics but gives a length of 670 mm with the band for attachment to the shaft and the color bands each being 240 mm high.
