I would suggest a rather nice Coldstream Guards lapel badge for wear in Mufti.

Looks like a lapel badge for the Coldstream Guards for wear in civilian clothing. The clutch grip fitting would suggest that it is fairly modern (these havent been in use with the British military for very long).

Hope that helps

Paul
