Tunic = Uniform
Reefer = Jackett


This is a Reefer for a Korvettenkapitän zur See.

You must change buttoned side. Normally on the right side has buttons with short hooks and the buttoned right side long hooks.

Is the there a label of the tailor or the owner inside?

Looks like the stripes (Kolbenringe) are sewn on a separate cloth.
Very uncommon for a Stabsoffizier I think.

No, no label . This one came with an Oelpainting of the soldier , but as a Kapitänleutnant. But sadly the owner did not want to sell the oel painting... its really a beautiful and large painting. Ah... the dagger was there too, but same like the painting.. until now not for sale

Ah... now I see and know what you mean with the buttons... LOL! You are right, that looks much better and fits much better....

I got the information that the soldier was in Norway and then in France. Thats all I know abot the man. On the left side are two loops . I dont think for a german cross, but maybe spain cross.

This is sad. Where you able you make a picture of the oil painting? I always love to see the man who "was in the reefer".
Could you figure out the Name of the Korvettenkapitän?
