No problem! One of the members of the forums there is Dutch and does a good bit of research, thought perhaps I'd missed something, but I checked...
Welcome to the forums. Fairly familiar with that site - where would the Amsterdam School maker's marks be found? ~Cheryl
Nice piece! Perhaps a variant of the illustrated Stroeve mark, the punch used on yours would be quite small... This piece, sold as Stroeve,...
To be clear - Sezgin was founded in 1950, there is no reason to believe they didn't produce Modernist pieces in the period. ~Cheryl
Thanks, Bear, they were both sweet babies, Percy lived a good long life, Sydney passed too soon - this pic is a fooler with Syd looking sad, she...
Please take into consideration that sales descriptions and anecdotal notes are not necessarily accurate, and asking prices are often extremely...

They look like metalized plastic, probably intended as blazer or sweater buttons - most likely the same age as the adapter clips, mid 20th...
Sorry, should have been more clear - would have just posted a link if the information could have been accessed that way... ~Cheryl
Heh, I bought her new on a charm-holder pendant in the mid-late '70s, still have it somewhere... I know I saw her in the 1904 Unger Bros. catalog...
As said, a German research project - so far as I know, password-protected at the moment... ~Cheryl
German 12 loth (.750), Constantin Hermann Kirsch of Bautzen, circa 1850. From a German research project: [ATTACH] ~Cheryl
Ummm - no, it is not a Bronze Age artifact. Have seen quite a few similar nephrite handled pieces from New Zealand, would think around late...
