This a very nice example of an officers badge on original scarlet cord boss to the 8th Gurkha Rifles worn from 1903 onwards

An example of this badge is illustrated in the Gurkha Museum's book on the insignia of the 8th Gurkhas ( 8GR D37) page 36

It has wire fixings - and although these badges were worn from 1903 to WW2 - I think this is an early one.

It was worn on both the field caps and forage caps.

Any questions please ask - happy to post abroad and will only charge the actual postage (signed for service)
