Original era manufacture. Nice quality enameled badge with a pinback suspension bar displaying the year 1914. Pendant measures 23x30mm. No damage.This information from one of our great customers: IODE is a canadian womens charitable organization that has ties to the british commonwealth. This is a membership badge that would have been worn by a member who had a son serve during WWI. If the bar was blue, her husband. If blue and red, both husband and son would have served. If the bar said 1918 and was white, either she or her daughter served as a nurse. The same repeats with 1939 and WWII.
