Pair of epaulettes of gold lace, the straps edged with a twist of bullion and a narrow border of twisted gold wire. There is a small gilt brass button at the end of the strap. The solid metal crescent is also edged with two borders of twisted gold wire. The badges in the crescent are embroidered in gold and feature a fouled anchor on a couched ground surrounded by laurel sprigs and surmounted by a crown that is also embroidered with red silk.

There are 34 gold bullions fixed over a rigid bonnet. The bonnet is lined with faded crimson silk. The underside of the crescent is of padded crimson silk and the underside of the strap is of crimson leather. There are two eyelets used to fix the epaulette to the coat.
