The badges have evolved over the years. The crescent must be set with pearls, but jewels in the lambda are another matter. I ordered one with the lambda set with emeralds but received one with alternating diamonds and emeralds, with diamond points. This was in the Balfour days.

First, thats a lovely badge! The graduated pearls are fantastic! (Whoever says some men doen't have good taste in jewelry certainly hasn't met you!) Congratulations on all your hard work!

Second, I have a question and this may seem obvious to everyone else but I'm either not understanding the history of this badge or its been a long day.

Your organization presently has a badge that every new member is given upon initiation. Is the badge that is the subject of this thread replacing that badge or is this an option for ordering the badge? An example would be getting sapphires as Tom mentioned his was.

I also wanted to add, that I've often wondered this same thing about my organizations badge
