Definitely a well made product. I ordered 6 hoping to have a matching set on both shoulders, however when they arrived I got two different styles. Possibly old stock and new stock? Definitely noticeably different in appearance. Can't fault the quality but it would have been nice if they all matched.

But, I was really surprised when they arrived.
I ordered 6, and they came quickly, as every WPG purchase I have ever made has.
They look exactly as described, EXCEPT for the way to attach it to your epaulets. I was expecting a sharp pin, with a closure for the other side.
What they HAVE, is two long loops, each about 1 cm long at opposite ends of the star. There is a cotter pin too.
Apparently this is how they were in WWII. I am not sure what troops in the field did, I am going to get six safety pins, and attach them that way!
