Prize medals awarded at exhibitions, 2nd half of the 19th century mink and embellished with frogging woven from metal thread, the dolman made from silk, and the trousers machine-woven from silk thread were produced in 1896, as were the jewelled accessories for the gala dress: the belt, the mente clasp, the plume, the sword, the spurs, and the buttons. Of special interest is the mediaeval page's uniform from the Millennial Procession; this is embellished with the coat of arms of the Liptay family and with velvet appliqué work, and bordered with braiding (Fig. 55). In the royal reception-room there stood a purpose-built armchair made to a design by Ignác Alpár. The conquering ancestors are recalled by a ceremonial shield, embellished with a depiction of the bloodpact and made for the Millennium.
