This new addition arrived this morning, an early Juncker EK2 with hand applied frosting. These can't be beaten in terms of quality or look IMO. The white frosting contrasts beautifully with the darkened frames. If there are anymore of this early type out there, please post them.

Ahh, it's a thing of beauty, Adrian. It has a W&L core. This cross is an early example with hand-frosted beading. Very nice, sir.

Adrian,
A breathtaking beauty. I have a one that was said to be an UM Juncker with hand-applied frosting and a W+L core. The photo is small (from before I figured out how to do them better).
...and here's the old thread.
Again: yours are very, very nice!Best regards,
Streptile
