Ah, there you go. Just a suggestion. I was lucky enough get a whole load of current Indian army insignia and they are a smilar type of design.
The silk material might suggest something locally made. Not hugely my area of knowledge I'm afraid. You need to hope Mike Jackson logs in! The collective knowledge of members here is astounding. All the very best Bess Al

At first glance, I was thinking Italian. Can't find a match in my reference books.
If Korea era, might be a one off, sort of like Canadian soldiers getting bullion parachute qualification wings made for their best bush dress while on leave in Japan. Just a thought. Ian
