Chilean Army Cavalry Colonel Visor Cap – 1950s | Metal Laurel Visor
This original Chilean Army Cavalry Colonel Visor Cap dates from the 1950s and represents a classic example of mid-20th-century Chilean military officer headgear.
Constructed in traditional gray wool, the cap features a period-correct embroidered national emblem, a braided chin cord, and distinctive metal laurel leaves mounted on the visor, a detail associated with senior field-grade officers such as Colonels. The metal laurels differentiate this piece from later bullion-embroidered examples and reflect the manufacturing standards of the era.
Well preserved for its age, this visor cap is an excellent collectible, suitable for military historians, collectors of Chilean cavalry items, or curated displays focused on South American military uniforms.
