Unidentified Order of the Garter fancy badge with King Henry VIII

[WRANGEL]

Good afternoon Gentlemen,

Can anyone help me identified this fancy decoration, is this a movie or theatrical prop or is it related to a false Order of Chivalry (International Order as the German called them) ?

It is a two parts construction, gilt and silvered bronze. There is no maker's mark.

Cheers

Bill

Sorry I have a hard time uploading photos for the moment !

I keep having the same message : "There was a problem uploading the file"

The photo I wanted to add is in jpeg and only 394 Ko, any idea how I could solve this problem ?

Cheers

Hello Gentlemen,

It seems that everything is back to normal. Here are two pictures of this fancy decoration.

Certainly nothing I've ever seen and I doubt that the use of the Garter motto is an authorized one.  Based on the 'bust' og Henry and the quality [poor] of the work, I'd guess that it is in fact an 'International Order', as you so diplomatically put it, or soemthing similar.

Hello Peter,

Many thanks for your response. I fully agree with you regarding the poor quality of this decoration and the fact that this might not been British.

Cheers

Hi Bill, that badge definitely is a bad fake, in my past I made this type of regalia and they all had George and the dragon in the centre.
