Unusual WW1 British .303 sweetheart “Bullet” Pendant fitted with Miniature Royal Engineers GvR Badge

Here on offer is a WW1 British .303 sweetheart “Bullet” pendant, fitted with a miniature gilt brass and enamel Royal Engineers badge.

The bullet with a rounded tip, looks to be from a WW1 period British .303 Mk VI ball round.

Mounted on the front is a finely detailed miniature Royal Engineers GvR badge/crest, made from gilt brass and enamel, with a King’s crown. The red enamel seems to be all in place but areas of the light blue and dark blue enamel is now missing.

The top of the bullet is fitted with a brass ring, allowing it to be worn as a pendant on a chain by a soldier’s sweetheart.

The bullet measures 1.7” (4.4cm) long, including the ring. The R.E. badge is 0.8” (2cm) wide and the pendant weighs 15.5g.
