Default Household Cavalry Badge?

Would anyone be able to tell me if this is a Household Cavalry badge?

What size is it? It looks like a Victorian Grenadier Guards pagri badge but those should be voided, so likely a fake if it is that size.
Cheers,
Alex

It is a fake design possibly based on a military martingale (horse tack ornament) of the Victorian period but it is too small and has the wrong fittings.

You have already asked about this badge and you have been given a comprehensive answer.

It seems pointless asking all over again and duplicating replies.

Its fake, fantasy, worthless etc etc.

Hello Alex

It is 42mm x 27mm. What part of the badge should be voided?

That is about the size of a pagri badge so definitely fake.
