Made in huge numbers and very difficult to date with any precision. The type you have are made in various metals and these rank stars/pips were worn from the 1890s through to the 1960s in many styles on different forms of dress. Some metal types are still worn today although now mostly made in anodised.
Some examples in my album https://www.britishbadgeforum.com/fo...hp?albumid=498
