Original WWII Imperial Japanese Navy (IJN) Officer Visor Cap w/ White Summer Cover
€300,00Original Second World War Imperial Japanese Navy (IJN) officer’s visor cap, a high-quality, regulation example demonstrating the refined tailoring typical of Japanese naval uniforms of the period.
The cap is constructed in dark navy wool, retaining a sharp, well-defined form. The front displays a fine officer-grade bullion insignia, featuring the classic IJN anchor beneath a cherry blossom, with bright gilt finish and only light age toning.
The black lacquered visor shows expected period crazing but remains structurally sound and complete. The chinstrap, side buttons, and stitching are all original and undisturbed.
The interior remains well preserved, with its original silk/rayon lining and sweatband intact, showing only light, honest service wear consistent with age. No repairs or alterations noted.
Importantly, the cap is accompanied by its original removable white summer cover, a feature sometimes missing on surviving examples and highly desirable among collectors. This significantly enhances both completeness and display appeal.
Overall, a well-preserved, complete, and visually striking IJN officer cap, increasingly difficult to find in this condition.
