[QUOTE="Any Jewelry, post: 457996, member: 2844"]I agree, the chain part has a Jakob Bengel feel. Before 1920 the factory just manufactured chains of different types, to be used in end-products of other manufacturers. The chain could have been made by JB, the fob chain combination by someone else. I was getting a 'Nibelungen' vibe from the medallion, but I could have been watching too many Fritz Lang movies. Lang's Nibelungen protagonists are generally more covered, but Siegfried does prance around bare-chested during part of the first movie, 'Siegfried'. Not a good look imo. He has wild wavy hair in the movie, the warrior type on the fob doesn't.
