The badge is constructed in two distinct halves: a gold-tone flaming grenade with a sphinx and laurel wreath — the regiment's Egypt honour — and a silver-tone X-shaped scroll bearing \"Lancashire The Fusiliers\" in relief. The slider fitting on the reverse is the standard cap badge bar mount.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is a collectible piece for military history enthusiasts and for those who wear vintage badges as brooches on lapels or jackets. The bi-metal finish makes it more visually interesting than single-finish versions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWears well on a dark wool lapel or heavy jacket where the gold and silver contrast reads clearly. The 6 cm width gives it the presence of a statement brooch without being heavy — at 12 g it sits flat without pulling fabric. Works equally as a display piece in a frame or case alongside other regimental badges.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDetails\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eType: Cap Badge (Brooch)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEra: Mid-century, circa 1940s–1960s\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOrigin: United Kingdom\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaterial: Mixed metal — gold-tone and silver-tone\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSize: 6 × 4 × 1 cm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWeight: 12 g\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMarked: No visible maker's mark\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eClosure: Slider bar fitting (standard cap badge mount)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStyle: Military, Regimental\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCondition\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eExcellent · Finish intact on both halves, slider mechanism functions smoothly, no losses or bends to the badge components.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"The Rare Room","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54107594162513,"sku":"RR-0403","price":9.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0846\/6667\/9633\/files\/2026-06-20_13.30.40.jpg?v=1781979926","url":"https:\/\/therareroom.co.uk\/products\/vintage-1950s-lancashire-fusiliers-mixed-metal-military-cap-badge-brooch-uk-pin","provider":"The Rare Room","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
