    Hello friends,

    Does anybody have any additional information on this badge:

    It is gold with real diamonds.

    Unfortunately I am waiting it to arrive by mail, so I can not tell what are the hallmarks.

    With best regards,

    Jani

    This looks to me to be a sweetheart's badge of the British 16th Lancers.

    A quick google suggests that the Polish 16 Lancers had a completely different badge (see below, from an eBay sale, I believe).

    What makes you think that it is Polish? Of course, when you see the hallmarks all will be revealed :)

    Nice badge, whatever its provenance!

    I would agree looks like a nice quality quite early GB 16th Lancers sweetheart brooch, these were given by officers to theirr wives, girlfriends or mistresses.
