Royal Artillery Cap Badges and Hackle
This lot comprises two Royal Artillery cap badges, crafted in brass with intricate detailing depicting a gun. Alongside these badges is a white feather hackle/plume, traditionally associated with the Royal Scots and Welsh Fusiliers regiments. Hackles were often worn on helmets or shakos as a distinctive unit identifier and added to the visual impact of military uniforms.
Condition and Collectibility
The badges and hackle exhibit signs consistent with age and previous use, displaying a patina that speaks to their history. While not pristine, the items remain visually appealing and represent a tangible piece of British military history. This lot would be of interest to collectors of military insignia, particularly those specializing in British Army badges and hackles, or those interested in the history of the Royal Artillery, Royal Scots, and Welsh Fusiliers.
