Here's one cross everyone admires. Look at the wide beading! This one is marked...

Another beauty from your collection, very very nice Robert
I'm a little bit jealous

Ciao

One marked example and, as luck would have it, one unmarked example. I need to weight both to see how close they are in weight, even though they are both identical.

I wish we could do a photo database of each maker marked and unmarked. This is really interesting stuff. Great looking cross.

A few of us have sent in photos of crosses using WAF's own format and nothing came of it. I tried twice and both times it just died. All of us would love to see a data base put together. It would really be a plus for beginner collectors as well as seasoned collectors. Maybe some day it will happen, maybe.

Perhaps we should ask Sepp45 to put together such a thread, he's others are outstanding. Just seems like it would be such a useful resource. There'd need to be an EKI thread too. It would make good stickies like the RK thread. Oh well, who knows what might happen.

A nice example Robert with a good clear stamp

1st and 2nd class spanges also. The Imperial forum has a data base for their EKI's and EKII's.

Is a good point.

Would be good to have a same reference point or 'sticky' in this forum.

Lot easier to research a certain cross or spange on your own first without having to ask to much on the help of more experienced members all the time.



Thank you

Dani

Its a lovely cross from one of my favourite makers.
That's a great idea to have a database of eks, lets hope it takes off.

Here's a front and back Picture of my Fritz Zimmermann EKII.

I really do like the look of the Zimmermann frames.
