Perhaps it is an illustration error, those do happen as seen in other period publications. Otherwise I've not know generals rank straps to be constructed any other way than what's pictured below (gold/silver/gold).
WSP cuff rings were supposed to be gold...as far as I remember offhand. Is this another illustration issue? Below is a link to a restarted WSP uniforms specific thread:
