About the Item

An impressive vintage 0.29 carat diamond and 0.02 carat ruby, platinum 'Salamanca eagle' military brooch; part of our diverse diamond jewelry and estate jewelry collections. This fine and impressive vintage diamond brooch has been crafted in platinum. The brooch has been modelled in the form of the Salamanca eagle*. The engraved body, wings and head of the eagle are embellished with a total of fifty-pavé set diamonds in a combination of transitional modern brilliant round and eight-cuts. The eagle's eye is represented by a round cut ruby. The foot of the eagle is ornamented with a enamel decorated plaque, accented with the number '62'. The brooch secures to the reverse with a hinged pin and clasp fastening.

The Essex Regiment has now amalgamated into the Royal Anglian regiment, and is now worn as the sleeve badge in honour.
