Unknown Device Looks Foreign
Can anyone identify this locket/ brooch, it has a military like scene with a lady holding a flag and shield, a cannon and an airplane of some sort. A photo inside and brooch fitting on the back.
Thanking you, Phil.

The cannon looks like a french 75,the coat of arm is for Alsace-Lorraine and the woman it seems is wearing the national dress of Alsace-Lorraine.So,a patriotic locket about when A-L went back to France....

The aeroplane looks a bit earlier than the date of annexation. Artistic license?
