WW1 Chinese Labour Corps ( CLC ) Cap Badge - Blade Fixings

A thin bronzed brass die struck badge with four original tabs to the reverse. As with most blades I would not recommend opening these up as they can become brittle with age. Almost black in colour, I personally would not attempt to clean it up. Rare.
