Possibly a rosette used in a competition within the regiment awarded for a sporting or equestrian event?

That description is from the seller of the rosette and is the item shown in the opening post.
Is the identification correct? Tim

Yes I see that it is actually the same badge as the one I bought yesterday . Its a crying shame that it has deteriorated in this way , but I didnt buy it from Sargent Militaia , I bought it from someone at the Leeds arms fair yesterday ( a punter not a dealer ! ) . I didnt pay very much for it , and bought it on a whim , hoping it was what it appears to be.

Boer War
Don’t know if it’s BW or not but not sure I’d trust the dealers knowledge. Just saying like.

The silk may be so brittle just moving it around perhaps in the post it would disintegrate.
