Quite interesting wings with some common features with early private purchase WW2 British badges (see https://www.britishbadgeforum.com/fo...45&postcount=9)

Feather detached and special rigging lines design are very close, the canopy is quite different though compared to the cloud pattern.

Unfortunately, many different patterns of private purchase para wings were made in UK during and after the war and it is impossible to date and classify them properly.
This design could also have been a special order made in UK for the Rhodesian forces.

An interesting and beautiful design nevertheless. Thanks for sharing.
