British Royal Navy Lieutenant Commander Officers Shoulder Rank Pair UNCUT

This item consists of a pair of British Royal Navy Lieutenant Commander Officers Shoulder Rank insignia, presented in an uncut format. These insignia are designed to denote the rank of Lieutenant Commander, a mid-ranking commissioned officer position within the Royal Navy. The uncut designation indicates that the insignia have not yet been trimmed or shaped for attachment to a uniform, preserving their original manufacturing state. Typically produced using a dark navy blue or black base fabric, the insignia feature gold lace or embroidery forming the rank distinction: two gold stripes with an intermediate thinner stripe—commonly referred to as the “loop” or “executive curl.” These shoulder ranks would have been sewn onto the epaulettes or uniform shoulders as part of standard Navy dress regulations. Items like these are of interest for military collectors, uniform historians, and institutions focused on British naval heritage. The pair offered here is suitable for reference, display, or as part of a uniform restoration project.
