Question Enamelled Parachute Regt badge

A friend of mine asked me if I had seen a full size KC Enamelled Parachute Regt badge as someone he knows wants one to replace the badge her Father wore.

I am completely at a loss about this and explained that I have never seen or heard of such a badge. Does anyone know of the existence of such an item, possibly for an officer for that period?

Regards Rob

There were many commercially produced silver and enamel badges of all regiments produced as sweethearts for wives and girlfriends and this will be one of those.

Take a look at this one from regimentalbrooches.com

Default Enamelled Para

Thanks Simon, these were my thoughts as well, but as I don't specialise in SF badges I thought I would put this up for ideas.
