A Tradition of Excellence in Military Accessories
The British Army is renowned globally for its high standards and ceremonial glory. Accessories worn in parades, official events, and honor guard are not merely for show; they are immersed in history and tradition. At Hand Embroidery UK, we bring life to that heritage with hand-made perfection.
We employ expert embroiderers who apply traditional methods and the best materials to create products that are up to military and ceremonial standards. Each stitch, braid, and finish is evidence of our quest for perfection. Our range includes everything from officer-grade ceremonial sash belts to very ornate epaulettes and historically accurate sword knots.
Ceremonial Sash Belts – The Pride of the Parade
The ceremonial sash belt is more than mere attire. It represents honor, rank, and tradition. Our sashes are custom-made from high-quality materials such as gold lace and luxurious cotton blends to provide a crisp and dignified look. Either worn across the torso or at the waist, they exude commanding presence and grace.
We provide an array of styles, ranging from bold crimson and regal blue to classic gold-threaded patterns, ideal for regiments, bands, and honor guards. Our sashes are hand-made on a small scale. Each is carefully and individually made, resulting in durability, comfort, and a look that will not date. Perfect for military events, re-enactments, and ceremonial proceedings, our belts are designed to mirror the grandeur of your role.
Epaulettes – Rank, Identity, and Heritage in Every Stitch
No military uniform is complete without epaulettes. These shoulder decorations have developed over centuries but retain the same symbolic meaning. They’re badges of rank, status, and regiment. At Hand Embroidery UK, we deal in both regular and custom epaulettes, carefully embroidered using bullion wire, silk thread, and detailed richness.
No matter if you require detachable parade epaulettes, officer shoulder boards, or regimental patterns with bespoke insignia, we have it covered. Our styles vary from understated and dignified to elaborate and commanding, with variations to meet ceremonial, marching band, or theatrical requirements.
More significantly, our epaulettes aren’t merely stylish, they’re durable. Designed for comfort and convenient attachment, they enable you to project military bearing without sacrificing the regalia of your unit.
Sword Knots – A Touch of Historic Elegance
Originally intended as a functional method of keeping a sword on the wrist, sword knots have evolved into a characteristic ceremonial element of numerous military uniforms. These ornate pieces of equipment combine history, artistry, and formality.
Our sword knots are available in many styles, such as gold bullion tassels, braided cords, and leather straps, each of a different regimental tradition. From formal inspections, parades, to reenactment events, our sword knots provide the finishing touch of polish and authority.
Every piece is carefully handmade with attention to historical accuracy and functionality. Our items can fit a variety of swords, from dress swords to sabres, and keep them firmly in place while adding to the overall ceremonial look.
