[QUOTE="Fid, post: 461073, member: 7724"]seems to be a bit more complicated with Mettlach/VB or not. the designer Ludwig Foltz seems to have taken the Regensburger Dom as model when he sketched it; he lived there during that time and the arrangement of windows of the towers seem to confirm it. this item here could be a cheap reproduction made certainly not by VB - such examples went directly to the dump in Mettlach. obviously the disk turned too fast, the clay was too wet and the whole thingy started to collapse. the cutting signs of the steel wire at the bottom were absolutely normal for mass-produced stuff well into the start of the 20th century and are no sign to determine age.
