Ariel – classic badge mounted onto a new leather keyfob

A new vitreous enamel Ariel keyfob badge which will have been produced in Birmingham within the last few years which we have mounted onto a new leather keyfob as can be seen in the photos .

This is not an original vintage badge – it will probably have been produced just a few years ago.

We have just this one keyring with this badge to offer  – when it has been sold this listing will be cancelled.

Superb quality ‘old school’ vitreous enamel badges like these were produced in Birmingham ( ‘MADE IN ENGLAND’ marked on the reverse of the badge – probably from the original 1970s badge dies – and were available up until quite recently .

We have remounted this badge onto a new leather keyfob in full grain black leather .

Sadly vitreous enamel badges like this one are apparently no longer produced in England .

This badge is identical to the original keyfob badges which were produced in the 1970s – but this badge is not an original 1970s badge, it was produced much later .

These badges were known as ‘drop badges ‘ – like a drop of liquid .

New reproduction badges will now usually be produced in modern resin based enamel – not vitreous enamel like this one – they are most unlikely to have ‘MADE IN ENGLAND’ marked on the reverse because they are no longer made in England .

The keyring in the photos is the actual one which you will receive .
