This scale model of Darbar Sahib was presented to Queen Victoria or King Edward VII. It features a Nishan Sahib with a chakkar quoit and khanda sword on an orange background with patterned gold borders. The configuration of the chakkar and khanda is similar to that of a Rattray's Sikhs military emblem laid on its side.

The emblem consists of a chakkar quoit with a straight bladed khanda sword appearing within and extending above the top of the chakkar. These two weapons in a similar configuration are also seen on some modern khanda emblem designs.
