"Sweetheart" Brooches - Show 'em off

[bananamafia]

Hi guys, I have a little soft spot for the ol' sweeties, mainly due to what they represent.
Here is a few of mine, id love to see any you have hidden away!

Very nice Ed.

I have a few, mostly badge conversions, mostly Welsh, though I have more than this, including some not Welsh ones and yet more Welsh ones.

Amazing how many I have ended up with, including the RWF button conversion necklace which was a gift from you Ed.

And some more. the RA good luck I gave to a friend and the Black watch was a gift to me from Gunny.

I think I have a few more kicking about but enough for now.

Very nice Jerry.
I love the Welsh one with the blue and red enamel scroll.

Thanks Ed. that one is full cap badge sized with a properly constructed separate scroll as on the cap badges.

Here are some of mine

Particularly fond of the silver and shell WWI ones although have started to thin out the collection lately.

The 15 star has been pinned to create a sweetheart brooch and is named to a casualty.

To include my most offensive one, to the Royal Engineers QE II

Here are a few of my nicer sweetheart badges and other sweetheart items. Particular favourites are the Artists Rifles Button with presumably the soldier's photo in the back and the Ypres 1914- 1916 badge featuring the 75mm gun. Cheers.
