Material: Cloth (rayon weave)
Size: 67mm W x 117 H
Description: Woven cloth patch for Bøstofte, a small village in Denmark, featuring the local heraldic arms. Five white blocks arranged in steps on a deep blue shield, with the village name above.
Circa: 1950 - 1970
Notes:
This piece reflects the tradition of municipal heraldry in Denmark, where towns and villages adopted simple geometric devices to symbolize their community. Today, it stands as both a decorative emblem and a reminder of Bøstofte’s local identity within the larger Guldborgsund region. Produced in rayon weave, likely during the mid-20th century, badges like this were often made for civic associations, schools, or local councils.
