Default enamelled lapel Badge
Possibly not military but I would like to know what it is none the less. There must be some significance in the the colours used.

Your thoughts please.

Thank you for posting the link. I am pleased to see that even the seller doesn't know what it is.

Looking at the colours my best guess is that it was worn by Argentinian Lion Tamers, and as such is an extremely rare badge as there are only two known examples.
