Tassel for Carabinieri Officers

Product overview

The Pendaglio Ufficiali Carabinieri is a formal cord accessory designed for Carabinieri officers and for collectors of military surplus, tactical, and duty gear. It is worn attached to the trousers’ belt or to an inner ring of the uniform coat for ceremonies and formal duties.

Definition: a ceremonial ribbon-and-metal cord that adds a refined, traditional touch to the Carabinieri uniform. Made from a silvered fabric ribbon and silver-tone metal fittings, it combines traditional symbolism with practical construction.

Main features

Key technical and visual details of this pendaglio:

• Ribbon: silvered fabric, 21 mm wide and 140 cm long, finished in a pointed tip.
• Decorative threads: black and light-blue filettatures, each 1 mm wide, woven into the ribbon.
• Reinforcement: four silver rivets positioned approximately 5 cm and 15 cm from each end.
• Adjustable loop: sliding passante made from the same silvered fabric for length adjustment and a secure fit.
• Double buckles: two oval silver-tone metal buckles, 30 x 35 mm with 4 mm thickness, joined by metal segments for stability.
• Hook: 40 mm silver-tone moschettone for secure attachment to belt or coat ring.
• Chain: five trapezoid links joined by tubular joints, made from corrosion-resistant metal.

How to use / When it’s useful

Quick answer: Attach the moschettone to your trousers’ belt or to the coat’s internal ring and adjust the sliding loop for a neat fit. The pendaglio is primarily used during formal events, parades, and ceremonial duties where a polished uniform appearance is required.

In most cases, wear it on the right side of the uniform so the ribbon hangs neatly and the chain and buckles remain visible. The adjustable passante keeps the cord secure during movement and ensures a consistent presentation whether worn on a duty coat or dress trousers.

Simple care keeps the pendaglio looking its best and prolongs its service life.

• Clean the ribbon with a soft, dry cloth; avoid soaking or machine washing.
• Polish metal parts with a cloth suitable for silver-tone metals; avoid abrasive cleaners.
• Store dry and protected to reduce exposure to moisture and corrosion.
