Silvered Cloak Mascarons

Product overview

Silver-finish metal mascheroni (alamari) for a ceremonial cloak: decorative and functional fasteners designed for military, police and formal dress mantles. They are aimed at units, tailors and retailers who need authentic-looking closures for parades, ceremonies and official uniforms.

Definition: a mascherone is a metal cloak fastener featuring a central relief and a hook-and-chain closure. These silver mascheroni combine ceremonial style with practical fastening for duty, tactical or dress cloaks.

Main features

Clean, balanced design and measured dimensions make these mascheroni suitable for formal mantles where appearance and secure closure matter.

• Lion head relief: raised lion motif at the center for a traditional, authoritative look.
• 34 mm diameter: visible but not oversized, keeping the cloak’s proportions balanced.
• Two-part closure: sturdy hook on the right and decorative chain on the left for reliable fastening.
• Chain details: eight circular links, each about 15 mm outer diameter, for flexibility and strength.
• Silver finish: metal with a silver appearance and surface treatment to resist wear and preserve the look over time.

How to use / When it’s useful

Attach the mascheroni to the cloak as a pair: the hook is sewn to the wearer’s right side and the chain to the left, creating a secure front closure for the mantle. Recommended placement is about 9 cm below the collar and about 8.5 cm from the cloak edge to ensure correct fit and balance.

Quick answer: these fasteners are ideal for ceremonial cloaks used in military, police or official events. In most cases, they are sewn in place by a tailor or uniform shop and remain fixed for repeated use in parades and formal occasions.

Care and notes

These mascheroni combine decorative value with low-maintenance care; simple routine cleaning preserves their finish and performance.

• Clean with a soft, dry cloth to remove dust and fingerprints.
• Avoid abrasive cleaners or strong chemicals that can damage the silver finish.
• Store cloaks flat or hanging in a dry place to prevent bending the chain links or hook.
