Royal Navy Medical Surgeon Commander Shoulder Boards

These are a pair of shoulder boards, or epaulettes, intended for a Royal Navy Medical Surgeon Commander during the Second World War. They are privately purchased, crafted by Geives Ltd of London, a well-known maker of military tailoring and insignia. The boards are constructed on a black velvet base with elaborate gold bullion braiding denoting the rank of Medical Surgeon Commander. The detailing includes red stripes, and each board features a brass anchor emblem.

Condition and Collectability

These shoulder boards exhibit signs of age and wear consistent with their vintage. The velvet shows some minor fading and compression, and the bullion work displays slight wear, but the overall construction remains sound. These epaulettes would be of interest to collectors of naval memorabilia, military insignia, or items relating to medical personnel during WWII. They represent a tangible piece of history and a testament to the craftsmanship of Geives Ltd.
