1913 is the dealer/item reference number, not the year 1913. Rhodesian parachute wings obviously do not date to 1913.
Correct identification
RHODESIAN ARMY PARACHUTE WINGS GREENS DRESS REF. C407
Your example has the correct characteristics for the Greens Dress version: dark green felt/wool backing, light-blue embroidered wings with dark feather detailing, and the cream/white parachute and suspension lines.
Specialist Rhodesian militaria catalogues use this same C-series classification system; for example, SA Militaria lists the Rhodesian Army Assistant Parachute Jump Instructor wing as C406, immediately adjacent to your C407 classification.Â
The same specialist market shows how desirable Rhodesian airborne insignia can be: Rhodesian Army Service Corps Air Dispatcher Greens Dress wing
