Aiguillette for State Police Inspectors

Product overview

The Dragona Ispettori Polizia di Stato is a ceremonial cord and tasseled accessory worn by Ispettori della Polizia di Stato to accompany the officer's saber in formal and duty dress. It is intended for Inspectors who require an authentic uniform detail for parades, inspections, and ceremonial duties.

Definition: The Dragona is a decorative cord with a closed tassel and sliding loop used with the Inspector's ceremonial sabre. This piece combines gold-speckled and crimson materials to convey authority and tradition within police, duty, and tactical uniform contexts.

Main features

Carefully made with traditional construction and precise measurements, the Dragona balances durability and formal appearance for uniform use.

• Materials: gold-speckled and crimson metallic threads for a refined, duty-appropriate look.
• Cord size: 6 mm diameter cord provides a solid base for the accessory.
• Overall length: approximately 30 cm from attachment point at the tassel to the fold.
• Sliding loop: the passante (sliding loop) is formed by four wraps of the same cord for smooth adjustment.
• Tassel details: closed tassel with a 4 cm stem, wrapped with seven metallic threads and finished with two turns of helical metallic braid.
• Symbolic role: crafted to complement the Inspector's uniform and ceremonial sabre.

How to use / When it’s useful

Quick answer: attach the Dragona to the sabre using the sliding loop and position it so the tassel hangs neatly beside the scabbard during ceremonies or inspections. It pairs with formal uniform items for official appearances.

In most cases, the Dragona is used for parades, official duties, and ceremonial events where traditional uniform detail is required. Adjust the sliding loop for a secure, tidy fit and avoid over-tightening to preserve the cord and tassel.

Care and notes

Maintain the Dragona by handling it gently and storing it away from moisture and abrasive surfaces to preserve the metallic threads and tassel shape.

• Store flat or hung with uniform to avoid crushing the tassel.
• Keep dry and avoid chemical cleaners; spot clean carefully if needed.
• Avoid rough handling to prevent fraying of the metallic threads.
• Limited availability: production runs are small and demand is high, so check stock before planning uniform issues.
