Hi can someone please help identify maker of this Baltic cross and if its authentic? I`d say its a fine piece though hinge and pin together with a pin holder is somewhat different from what I`ve seen on others.

It looks ok to me. Maker might be hard to determine. I'll look through my Baltic Cross book and see if I can find the answer. -
It might be an unmarked Meybauer.Comment

Imo a period example but I think the hardware may be replaced. Whether it was originally a pinback or with ribbon ring would require examination of the ends of the cross arms.

Sorry. I don't agree with you on this. This type of hardware is illustrated in Konstantin's book on the Baltic Cross. The only thing that's different is the catch with a base-plate.Originally posted by Mike Kenny View Post
The beveling appears consistent around the edges. So, I doubt the idea of a suspension ring.Comment
