Canadian Highland Light Infantry Bullion Wire Blazer Crest

This crest features intricate bullion wire embroidery, a technique utilizing coiled gold or silver wire to create a raised and detailed design. The central design typically includes regimental symbols such as the thistle and crown, reflecting the unit’s Scottish heritage and affiliation with the Canadian military. Blazer crests of this kind are commonly worn by veterans, regimental members, or those with a historical connection to the regiment during formal or commemorative events.
