Russian Cossack Burka

Russian / Soviet heavy black felted hair burka (бурка) cape as worn by Kuban Cossack infantry troops. Expensive high quality garment, made of 'karakul' (the short curly fur of young lambs). The burka is showing typical war period lining material and is nicely marked. Extremely rare and hard to find original example, only the first example I've seen offered for sale!
