Queen’s Royal Hussars (QRH) pouch badge in silverplate and gilt, representing the regimental insignia worn by this senior armoured cavalry regiment of the British Army. This finely executed badge displays the regiment’s distinctive device in clear relief, incorporating crowned elements, regimental cypher, and finished in contrasting silverplate and gilt typical of high-quality ceremonial insignia.
The Queen’s Royal Hussars was formed in 1993 through the amalgamation of The Queen’s Own Hussars and The Royal Irish Hussars, combining the heritage and battle honours of both regiments. The design of the badge reflects this lineage, incorporating royal symbolism and cavalry traditions associated with hussar regiments, known for their distinguished service and ceremonial splendour. Pouch badges of this type are worn on sabretaches or ammunition pouches during full dress and ceremonial duties, emphasising regimental identity and prestige.
Manufactured in silver-plated and gilt metal, this example provides a well-defined representation of modern British cavalry insignia. Queen’s Royal Hussars badges are collected as examples of British Army cavalry memorabilia, regimental pouch badges, and contemporary ceremonial uniform fittings.
