Links of London Sterling Silver Concorde Lapel Pin
An Icon of British Engineering in Sterling Silver
This sterling silver lapel pin presents a refined sculptural rendering of Concorde, one of the most recognisable aircraft ever produced. Crafted by Links of London and hallmarked in 1995, the design captures the clean delta-wing geometry and elongated fuselage that defined supersonic travel.
The modelling is restrained and architectural, focusing on silhouette and proportion rather than decorative detail. The aircraft measures 35mm in length with a 16mm wingspan and rises 5mm at the tail, maintaining clarity of form at miniature scale.
