Griff,
I'm so glad you passed on it! My Gain and from the relatively poor quality of strike I would say Lambourne is the probable manufacturer!

If thats the case then well done...

The Lambourne that I am after would be as below but in BiM.

Griff,
I think you may be on a bit of a wild Goose Chase in looking for a lugged example? I'm not sure when/what time period Lambourne produced ORs Cap badges, however all the marked ones I've seen have been slidered and quite rightly for the period! I'd be looking for a slidered one if I did not already have one

Best Regards

Andy

The one I have is slidered...... so I am just looking for its equivalent in BiM/Slider .... if indeed it does exist "without" a scroll.

The search goes on.....
Misinterpreted what you meant!

Thought I'd posted this before, but obviously not.

This is a PPC of the Denbighshire at camp in 1914. Looking at it under a glass you can easily see that both cap and collar badges are bi-metal.

I also know they're not Wilts, not just because it says so on the card but because I've now got four tunics to a NCO in the Wilts dating from 1900 to 1910 to compare them with.Complete with all badges, shoulder chains, shoulder titles, bullion rank stripes and arm badges. Some with VC buttons, some with KC buttons.

A very recent acquisition from eBay for a very modest sum.Officer’s silver and gilt with a very robust construction which I’ve not seen before and looks to have had two loops N/S originally. I’ll give it a clean and put it with the others I have for comparison.

I would suggest that the badge has been constructed from an existing set of Feathers that was worn without a scroll and had its two loops removed when added to a lower scroll.

I note that the coronet and the scroll appear to be a different mix of colours which I think is a further indication.

When that was done, I cannot say.

regards

Here it is cleaned up. The gilding is still in reasonable condition. With the other two I have, on the left.

There is no difference in the colour of the crown overlay and the title scroll, it’s just where there is wear to the gilding on the high points of the crown. Further the pattern of the PoW feathers and the title scroll are exactly the same as the other example I have shown on the right of the line.

Kevin,

Unusual construction but I like it. There is enough about it to make me feel comfortable with it.
