The front features the distinctive Kikusui design, combining the Imperial chrysanthemum motif with flowing water.
The reverse is clearly marked:

“Pure Silver”and
生駒製
“Made by Ikoma”This identifies the badge as a silver piece produced by Ikoma, a well-known Japanese maker of military and commemorative insignia.
This type of badge has been variously attributed to Japanese Army Kikusui units, including the 100th Division and aviation-related formations. However, the exact unit attribution of this particular design remains uncertain, so it is offered without a definitive unit identification.
