Thank you Baxter.
I recall you found us some great links when the cockade was discussed before.
The embroidered officer's star is just soooooooo similar.
Perhaps the Royal Collection are still researching some of our "missing" jewels and, one day, the cockade will be featured on the website? I do hope so.
