Victorian Volunteer`s Scarlet Stable /Shell Jacket & Black Wool Trousers

A very small size and slim fitting Victorian Volunteer`s scarlet melton stable/shell jacket bearing silver coloured NCO chevrons, twisted shoulder cords (held firmly with VC white metal buttons), bullion marksman`s badge and Austrian knots which now are all slightly tarnished.
The scarlet melton cloth is in very good condition with very little wear, all seed buttons are present but some do appear to be missing in main photo but just folded inside out of view, sadly the padded silk lining has suffered over time and now fragile but not noticeable if jacket displayed on a mannequin.
The black wool trousers are in very good condition with only a couple of minute moth holes in crotch area, the legs have been shortened but luckily not cut down so there is a 5 inch internal turn up, thin scarlet welt down legs, the lining has some loose stitching in places and little grubby but left as found.
Approx 28 inch chest, 27/28 waist, 28 1/2 inside leg (not including turn up).
Displays well.
