Gendarmerie sleeve eagle patch

Hi all!!!
I don’t like the technique of this patch, it’s not very good.
What are your opinions? This is a copy?

In my opinion that is a seriously strange insignia. It looks nothing like an original, and displays many characteristics seen on reproductions. Looking at the reverse it actually appears to be hand embroidered. An very impressive feat, but the obverse just doesn't match any known original pattern.
I have to vote repro on this one.

Regards,

I agree, another repro. Unusual pattern and it looks all together too new, especially that light colored backing material which looks like a more modern / new material. Also wondering how the size compares.

Bill, Dave - many thanks!!!

Also wondering how the size compares.

The seller writes that the wingspan is 9.5 cm.
