The Last of the Many: A Relic of Royal Air Force History

The Hurricane PZ865 Lapel Pin is more than an accessory, it is a tangible connection to the final Hawker Hurricane ever produced. Pin this silhouette to your lapel and carry the weight of a legendary fighter that transitioned from the front lines of production to the hallowed ranks of the Battle of Britain Memorial Flight.

The Biography of the Metal Known as "The Last of the Many," PZ865 rolled off the Hawker production line at Langley in July 1944, marking the end of an era for the aircraft that proved the backbone of the RAF during the Battle of Britain. Unlike many of its predecessors that were lost to the attrition of war, PZ865 was preserved by Hawker for exhibition and later gifted to the Battle of Britain Memorial Flight. Every milligram of aluminium used in this pin is reclaimed from the original airframe of this specific aircraft, a machine that has spent over eighty years serving as a flying tribute to the pilots of the Allied forces.

The Founder's Note When you hold this lapel pin, you feel the density and integrity of 1940s engineering, refined through our bespoke casting process. We have blended the reclaimed airframe aluminium with 925 Sterling Silver to create a high-grade alloy that provides both a substantial weight and a lasting, lustrous finish. Each piece undergoes a rigorous tactile inspection to ensure the smooth, hand-polished surface honours the aerodynamic soul of the original Hurricane. It is a small but significant fragment of British history, designed to be felt as much as it is seen.
