SUPPER OFFICER'S SADDLE with single tree in green silk velvet of the same model as the general officers.
It is embroidered with silver thread scrolls.
This saddle, the only one known to exist, could have been used in a number of different ways.
For the Colonel General of the Dragoons, a unique position. A senior officer of the chasseurs à cheval de la garde, as some did not like the use of the saddle à la hussarde.
Possibly the general commanding the empress's dragoons. The emperor's household also used green saddlery, so we might also be thinking of his commander.
This piece is unique in its rarity: silk saddles are extremely fragile, especially when embroidered.
