Default Glosters officers wire embroidered badge

The embroidered badge came with the brooched collar badge and according to the man I got them from some Medals to a Glosters officer.

The badge is well made and attractive but that doesn't mean much,
any thoughts welcomed.

( It is an item I wont be keeping )

P.B.

The bullion badge is a very modern piece, likely for civilian wear. The collar badge is officers gilt version that has been altered with a brooch fitting, again likely for civilian wear.

To me,the bullion badge is most likely to be a blazer badge. Never seen a red tablet.

Thanks for the replies, I did wonder about a blazer badge, but thought it is in the small size for that.

P.B.
