About this service

The fringed epaulet, with a padded crescent at the shoulder and hanging bullion fringe, is the most recognizable piece of ceremonial uniform. Making one requires a pattern for the strap, the crescent (often heavily padded), and the fringe length and density. Our pattern lays out each component at full size with materials specified, ready for a workshop to produce matched pairs.

How we build it

  • Strap, crescent, and fringe laid out as separate components
  • Padding marked for the raised crescent
  • Fringe length and bullion type specified
  • Produced as a matched left and right pair
