United Kingdom - Cavalry - Badge - 19th - late

Heraldic insignia / antique front plate depicting the Royal Coat of Arms of the United Kingdom, widely used throughout the 19th century.

The Official Mottos: • On the central circular garter: "Honi soit qui mal y pense" (Motto of the Order of the Garter). • In the curved lower cartouche: "Dieu et mon droit" (God and my right - Motto of the British sovereigns). 3. The Crown Crest: Placed atop the shield and surmounted by the heraldic lion. Technical Characteristics • Country of Origin: United Kingdom (Great Britain) • Era / Period: 19th Century (Victorian / Georgian era) • Material: Heavy brass / Bronze alloy • Finish: Natural patina of time, not polished (retains the historic charm of oxidation) • Dimensions: Height between 9 cm and 11 cm (varying with the maximum proportional width) • Weight: 101 grams (a solid weight, consistent with the thick casts or thick stamped metals of the period) • Condition: Generally good overall given its age.
