The badges and pendants feature National flags of England & Great Britain and portraits of Royalty and, Government & Military Leaders such as Prince Edward / King Edward VII, Lord Kitchener, Lord Roberts, Baden Powell, General Buller. All are clean. To avoid risk of damage we have not attempted to remove the badges and pendants from the frame. At some point in their life the badges have been professionally mounted in a glazed frame (the glass has a crack on one edge). The glazed wood frame measures 15 ½” by 12 ½” by 1 ¾”. The rear is mounted with cord for wall hanging and has the frame makers details (illustrated). This is a nice display. The price includes UK Delivery.
