Pearl - pre-1905.

It is an amazing badge, and I'm glad it came to live with me! I posted photos of it a few weeks back in this thread.

Normally I would never say I want to live pre-1905, but I would go back in a heartbeat just to get one of those badges! The last one especially is stunning!!!!!!!!

I was told it was coral...but I've since had another person comment that they believe they are pink opals...so now I'm doubting the first info I got. Any stone experts?

That's beautiful. We have a similar one with our badge in the center if a red rose. I've always loved it. The soft yellow of the rose compliments the gold badge nicely in this picture.

I'm not sure if this badge has ever been posted, but it is worth a repost. Can anyone tell me anything about this badge? I never knew we had an emerald option.

Coral and pearl (date unknown to me - but pre-1905)
Looks like it could be coral to me!

We standardized to pearls or diamonds/pearls early on. Now National Vice Presidents wear an emerald badge with three diamonds. It is replica of one of our Founder's badges.
