Dear Beth,
This brooch has been worn once by QEII.
Therefore, this brooch was worn once in public since her death.
I will post of photo of QEII wearing this brooch.

I am not sure that this brooch has an "official" name among jewellery lovers, hence my choice of name.
Brooch
It was a favourite of Queen Elizabeth the Queen Mother for wearing to some racing events. HM wore it pinned slightly differently on occasion.
The earliest occasion I discovered it worn was for the post WWII sea trials of the ship, Queen Elizabeth, in 1946.
At a race meeting
HM also liked to wear it to the Braemar Games at times.
