Click to enlarge

Silver and polychrome enamel badge of multi-part construction in the form of a circular wreath of green enamel laurel leaves and red and white enamel roses, a suspension loop at the top; the face with the equestrian silver figure of Saint George facing right with flowing red enamel cloak, a sword in his right hand, mounted on a white enamel horse, a bright green enamel dragon at his feet; the reverse plain with maker’s mark ‘SPENCER LONDON’ registered design number 364469 and silver assay marks for Birmingham, 1908; some contact marks and loss of enamel from the horse’s left foreleg; diameter 38.16mm (1.5 inches); court mounted on original ribbon with hook and eye fitments to the reverse for wear. The Royal Society of St. George was founded in 1894 with the aim of promoting English values and the English way of life. It rapidly gained the support of many leading public figures, including Queen Victoria who became its first Royal Patron. Every subsequent monarch has lent their royal patronage to the Society and in 1963 Queen Elizabeth II granted the Society its own Royal Charter. The badge is not often found. An impressive early piece.
