STERLING SILVER FYLFOT BROOCH!
For your consideration I have an original pre-World War II Baden Powell Boy Scout fylfot brooch. It measures approximately 2 cm by 2 cm (or 7/8 of an inch by 7/8 of an inch) and is marked on the back as follows: BIRKS ELLIS / STERLING. Birks Ellis was a well known Canadian manufacturer of fine gold and silver jewellery (later becoming s...imply Birks). This pin is in excellent, but tarnished condition with normal signs of age in the form of very light wear & scratches (see pictures). The fylfot cross was originally a sign of peace and / or good luck in several cultures before World War Two. In Scouting the symbol was used on a number of small items and given out as an expression of thanks.
