Comments:
As can be seen with the images above, there is a pin attached to the top of this favour so it can be pinned to clothing. In the image though, the actual top has been folded down so that the title of the favour, " H.M. Alexandra " can be seen, but the actual reverse of the favour is not visible. It is hence not known if there is anything woven on the reverse. The basic design of this favour though is identical to gb723: H.M. Edward VII, and this is known to have the GRANT name woven on the reverse. The favour above is hence a pair to the Edward favour.
