Royal Air Force chrome wishbone brooch lapel badge, incorporating the RAF wings insignia beneath the King’s Crown. The Royal Air Force was established on 1 April 1918, becoming the world’s first independent air force. Its distinctive insignia, featuring the RAF eagle and associated royal symbolism, has been used across a wide range of service badges and uniform accessories.
This lapel badge features a chrome construction with a wishbone-style backing and brooch, allowing it to be worn on civilian clothing or as part of a collection of RAF memorabilia. The King’s Crown design identifies it as a pattern associated with the reign of King George VI, between 1936 and 1952, although later manufacture or reproduction is possible. It is of interest to collectors of Royal Air Force insignia, British military lapel badges and aviation memorabilia.
