OK, I'm curious... are these parade or battle flags or both? Why is the staff so short? A casting consideration maybe?

Hi Mark
This set is among the good ones made by SEGOM
It can be usefully completed by the Bretegnier set, available from Christian Terana

A man after my own heart.  It is a colorful time period isn't it?


Another thing on my list is Segom's flag bearer figures which they sell in sets of ten.  Again Bisutlfi's site has a nice example of them painted - I have a set from 1778 I am slowly working through but, am tempted by the Louis XV period.

Hi,
Thank you for bringing this Segom set to my attention; it is fantastic.  I've now looked at their site and my will power is weakening having seen the Garde Suisse and Garde Francaise and the Fontenoy set.

Hi Mark,
I also have this set I have often though about painting it. Mr Bistulfi's example will maybe give me the push I need. It's a beautiful set.

Another Segom set of a colorful time period engraved by Daniel Lepeltier.  After Vernet's picture of the battle of Fontenoy.  Figures are nicely engraved and cast, typical of Segom.
