it may be stupid but!
it is a Sweethearts Brooch.
We had similar in New Zealand and often the rifle was made of gold and small semi precious and precious stones were placed around the shield/badge naming which unit it was for. Worn by mothers, wifes, sisters and sweethearts of members of the unit to show support while they were away fighting. I had one which I gave to my step daughter with a #4 LE 303 in gold with an engineers shield on it that I got in my travels in New Zealand.
