theres writing on the inside, that i cannot work out,

any thoughts appreciated

 

thanks inh, i think you might be right

hopefully the symbol might not mean what i thought at first, but i dunno

 

id much prefer to be wrong !!

 

It opens up to be large enough that some adult women could wear it. I could get it on, pretty sure. I'm fine boned & have trouble with bracelets being too large, but I'm not petite. Lots of women whose requirements in a bracelet even smaller than mine, especially in earlier generations.

Looks like something you could have worn tucked inside a cuff or out, depending on the company you were in.

 

Like INH said, it's probably one of the other cultures. I don't see this as a German piece.

Look at Hinduism and marriage symbols.

I found a Hindu marriage coin a while back that had a couple Swastika-type symbols on it.

FYI, Hitler had a graphic design background...Maybe he ripped it off from another culture, that lousy, $%&^@!

 

interesting stuff, thanks for the great info.

it looks so odd on jewellery, like on this piece

I think we should not swear about the former German chancellor because the feelings of the German members might be hurt.

 

Let it go Fid .. Joy.

 

really....yer really putting that out there....without even a smiley face...?

Joy is right !!

 

Yes ... This is the Antiquers forum, let's concentrate on the business if antiques and leave the other stuff out of it, Fid, you are really highly thought of by so many members here, please stay with us, you are such a knowledgable person and we need your input AND you ... Joy.

 

I am just checking back in to this thread. I feel bad and apologize if I've offended anyone past, present, or future. It was insensitive, but more of a half hearted attempt at humor on the supposed design thievery than anything.

I am new here and don't want to make any enemies. If I could delete it, I would.

Sorry all.

 

hi sabre, i think this is just heat that has risen from a previous thread

i didnt want to get involved, but dont want you feeling too bad, just bad timing from both of us !!
