Hi,

please your opinion to this EK1. It is non magnetic, marked 800 and very vaulted. Any idea about the manufacturer?

Any opinions welcome.

Best regards

I second that, really nice Deumer with silver hallmark, which is not often to find. These pieces have mostly neusilber frames.

The case is not official, as this Deumer cross was not awarded piece either (privately purchased piece from 20s-30s).

Looking at overall shape, construction and workmanship, it is a custom made gift box at best, if not "upgraded" case for something else.

Very nice Deumer

Nice cross, Pavel. I like the box as well and think it is original to the 20s-30s, just homemade by someone to keep their WW1 medals/badges or other mementos. The EK and the cross may not have been together originally, but no way to tell either way without any provenance.
