Chris:

This image does indeed resemble several of the royal crests used by Thai rulers, especially those from the Ayutthaya period. However, in looking through my records I cannot find one of the royal crests which exactly matches the image that you show--several are close but no precise match. I will be interested to hear what others think.

I only have this image at the moment, but will hopefully be getting more shortly.

If anybody can shed some light, I would be most grateful.

Kind regards,
