Militaria, Decorations and Orders of Chivalry

Militaria, Decorations and Orders of Chivalry

Buy and sell military memorabilia, medals, honours and knightly orders at auction, in our online shops or in private sales. Military memorabilia include uniforms, caps, helmets, medals, decorations, badges, insignia, flags, photos, prints and documents relating to the history of modern armies from the beginning of the 19th century to the end of the Second World War.


Under the direction of Danilo D'Alfonso, the department deals with relics and documents relating to the history of modern armies, taking as a privileged historical reference period that, starting from the dawn of the 19th century (and in particular the Napoleonic epic), arrives at the end of the Second World War. The category of collecting medals and honours is treated as a whole, thus extending the research to knightly orders and pieces of non-military origin. In particular, they are sought and proposed:
  • uniforms, headgear and military equipment;
  • medals, decorations, badges, emblems, military flags;
  • models, prints, photos and documents relating to the history of modern armies from the beginning of the 19th century to the end of the Second World War;
  • knightly orders

At the department and in our online shops there is always a selection of pieces in various price ranges that can be purchased even out of auction.

Danilo D'Alfonso has a long and articulated experience in the field of collecting militaria, medals, honours and knightly orders. Before taking over the direction of the Militaria department of Bertolami Fine Art he collaborated with the most important Italian auction houses as an expert in the field.
