The quality of the badge and its enamel in particular is nothing short of extraordinary.

In excellent condition. The enamel is perfect; the details of the artwork are pristine. The original brass screw post is full length, nearly 7 mm measured from its base, and includes an unmarked screw plate which is of the period and probably original to the badge.

A beautiful and very scarce early piece!
