    Thank you all. I assumed it was a cap badge but wasn’t certain.

    I would like to see the other side. The missing pin catch should be easy enough to replace.

    Here for reference are four Stewart badges. There are so many firms that made them, the variety is almost infinite.

    One might be similar to yours.

    Can you post a photo of the front? Thanks!

    The theme of the pelican mother self-sacrificing to feed its young with its own blood is a common mediaeval theme in heraldry, as I recall the term is "vulning".
